>Actually, they are. >It's an innate instinctual behaviour inherent in all healthy human beings and we are social creatures that have succeeded through co-operation. If you have never felt the urge to help someone, prevent abuses and exploitation you might actually be a sociopath. Agreed it's all innate as you said. But think of it for a moment. If a poor man forces me to part with my money, I sure won't be happy. I would tell him to fk off. But if I voluntarily donate, that is another story. No one should be allowed to calibrate my urge of having to have to help someone though force(taxes), it's my decision entirely. >People like you try to wax philosophical about self-reliance and pulling yourself up by the bootstraps, You are putting words in my mouth. Stop that.
