Because of this workers don't work they keep on taking leaves , whithout pay , as they are not bothered to earn more. They know , that they have enough ration which govt gave @rs 2.
I am of the opinion that instead of giving them fish , we should teach them how to fish.

After getting refreshed i some poor people roaming about and felt bad for them. So i gave the store keeper extra money for 5 glasses of juice and asked him to pass it on to any needy person who may come by.
Surely it is not the same as in the above story, where the needy can themselves ask for a drink without hesitating, but i hope that the shop keeper when faced with someone begging or struggling would remember the bonus he has and refresh someone in need.
