I’m not sure anyone deserves anything. If we flourish and provide for the less fortunate that is fantastic and I am all for that.
We can and do have laws and ethics about what is not permitted to do to people. That’s fantastic and I support that.
For children, I would say they aren’t yet potentially self sufficient, so as a society we should all share the responsibility that they have what they need to grow and develop healthily.
But no, I don’t ‘deserve’ the things you mentioned. I’m an adult human who needs to go try to manifest those things for myself. Including basics like food and water.
- zebogen 6y agoOK, imagine you're disabled and unable to procure your own food and water. Now what?
- colinmhayes 6y agoYou're getting caught in semantics. Obviously no one deserves anything, the world is chaos. What OP meant by deserve is probably that they believe it's immoral for society to not provide those things. I tend to agree because I believe eliminating abject poverty raises total utility.
