Remember the proverb: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"

I believe the modern version is: " Give a man a fish and you feed him for a
day. Teach a man to fish and you can sell him fishing licenses and
overpriced fishooks and increase your county revenue by fining the shit out
of him when he goes over limit in an effort to actually bring home enough
fish to feed himself and his family"
