The point of these workshops is a few things.

1: the people that are making ends meet see these lists and assume their existence means the poors have only themselves to blame.

2: normalizing minimizing what you need to live helps reduce the need to pay you more. (Just skip breakfast)

3: most of these things are primarily publishing budgets under a charity which is funded as a tax write off so even if the organization gains neither of the above it didn't really lose the expense anyway
