The stamps we receive for free or can buy everyone gets if he shops at a supermarket or cheeseshop or pharmacy but also there are periods you can collect them from on the market and other places and if you have a full card you receive a free product and a full booklet is an amount of money. So we use for the end of the year for food or presents. Many Dutch people are doing it. You find them on the butter, coffee, tea and many more products. I believe we are the country of stamps. LOL It might get fewer but there are also supermarkets given reductions for a longer period but you need the app from the shop.. so basically we are the product.

There was a couple in Rotterdam who started the food bank.
by now the government took over and decided who will receive it but it's exactly enough not to die and mainly the same, unlike what I see from what they provide people with in the US. No fruits, meat and so on and it's getting less because the supermarkets no longer give to the foodbank.

Now we have little cabinets in the streets. People place them in front of their houses. You can put in food or little items, books and so on, whatever you don't need. You are also free to take it out if you need it and it works very well. Let's see how fast the government will forbid it.

It's terrible to ask for help. Hundreds of forms and they like to know everything over years and it depends on the mood of the person who receives help and who doesn't so many don't even ask because it's very stressful.

I believe many of the present Steemians don't even know who Justin Sun is. I discovered it lately. And if they hate him they better go blog somewhere else. I agree with you it became way more peaceful and I am happy with that. If there will be more interaction between the users it will be a much better place. Let's go for that.
A happy evening!
