What you call competition, others call being useful to your fellow human beings by providing a good or service others find valuable. I understand why we should provide basic needs for those that can't "compete", but why should we provide for those that simply don't want to? Why should someone have the right to not provide something of value to their fellow humans while still enjoying things of value (food, shelter, medical care) provided by their fellow humans? If you can contribute and don't contribute, then you shouldn't get any contributions from others.
