How much additional obligation do the rest of us have to people who had their entire child-free lives to save money and didn't, already receive a check from the government every month, and get free health care? Do individuals have no responsibility at all for their own situation?
- ianai 9y agoYes! You assume she ever had two pennies to push together to put toward saving and that saving would have been enough. All the evidence is to the contrary. Frankly, government spending is completely independent of government income. The government could create whole economies based upon shoveling mountains from one place to another ad naseum without fear of run away inflation or other issues. Some could say that’s what the DOD already does.
