very poorly thought out and worded by THE GOVERMENT if i got told to wear a orange lumo wasitcost with "community payback" on the back id just say FUCK THE COMMUNITY and be more likely to try and shit on society at every oppotunity. It just creates a more US AND THEM mentality with the cons, dumb fucking suits
