You make it sound like it hasn't already been tried. As far as I know every time you remove the social safety nets you turn society into a Dickensian nightmare where the poorest in society struggle massively, not 'innovation' or 'freedom'.
- tesmar2 5y ago“Remove the social nets”? Your family is the social net. Oh it would be much better than what we have now. Not only would you get to keep much more of your money, you’d get to use it to support your family yourself — or even use it to plan for your own retirement, your way. It would, of necessity, bring families closer together and encourage forward thinking. By default the family is the social net: this experiment we are in of shifting that to the massive, bureaucratic state is immoral, and on top of that — not going well.
