The whole welfare thing has been on my mind lately and I've had some discussions about it with people of various views. Should we help people in need? How do we do it? How do we make sure the people who really need help are getting it and how do we prevent fraudsters from stealing from the system?
Well... I've come to a couple conclusions and I'd like to hear some feedback on this.
#1 - WE SHOULD HELP THOSE IN NEED
Now, the "WE" is where I tend to run into disagreements with some. I think "WE" is the people. People should help other people in need. Some people won't help and some people will help. But, I think it's important to maintain the freedom to choose who to help and how, even though this means some people won't help. Helping people in need is none of the government's business.
#2 - I DON'T BELIEVE IN FORCED CHARITY
I don't need to write an explanation for this one as I found a video that says it perfectly.
"NO ONE HAS A RIGHT TO ANYTHING AT MY EXPENSE."
