This quote suggests that providing assistance, whether it be financial or otherwise, to individuals who do not display any willingness or effort to improve their own situation is essentially a futile and wasteful effort. It implies that supporting individuals who lack the motivation or drive to better themselves may not lead to fruitful outcomes, making it more logical to allocate resources towards those who are actively striving for self-improvement.
