Quote:Sorry, I fundamentally disagree.


I think things like university education should be free for anyone that can keep up a 2.0GPA and living expenses should be paid, even if someone wants to have 10 degrees and literally spends their entire life in academia.


I also think welfare should be available for anyone who needs it and its focus should be getting people educated or trained for specific work.

For those who simply cannot function in working conditions we have Social Security, and I don't have a problem with that being used, either.


As for my analogy, it is quite apt, since most people fundamentally follow the rules of the road when they drive, just like most people in government assistance simply need it.


Your analogy is telling, though. You perceive those who need help as injuring you somehow, and it's just not the case to any significant extent.
