To be fair, I don't see how anyone can really argue against young people coming out of the care system being offered some ongoing financial support. They're at a distinct disadvantage compared to most young adults. I'd say offering housing and no-strings-attached extra income up until 21 is fair, though there's an argument for older (maybe 25). Makes it much more likely that they'll be able to pursue education & training, a trade, maybe even use the time to start a business and get it earning.

Fact is, most young people are supported to at least SOME extent by their parents in their early 20's - or at the very least they have the safety net of a roof over their head if everything falls apart.
