This is why I really dislike social solutions that involves money. I understand that you have no choice but to use money in a developed economy (because if you just give services, it doesn't count toward GDP), but this is peak 'indicator became the target' dumbassery.

And considering GDP as the most important metric isn't peak dumbassery ?

Who would give the services if there is no payment? Are you talking about a barter society?
