Why? not everyone needs an overlarge and authoritarian government baby sitting them.
We became great as a nation without having to rely on a nanny-state to "protect" those poor poor people who are "obviously" unable to do it themselves...
- jedberg 6y agoTrue! And in 1875, do you know what happened if you got hurt on the job? They left you for dead because there was no consequence in doing that. Maybe if they were nice they would drag you back to town to see the doctor first. But then you couldn't work anymore, and so you died or begged for charity. The nation was built on the fact that if you became unable to work, or were never able to work at all, you were discarded by society. I don't want to live in a society that discards people because they can't work.
