I see your point. I pay for, but take little in return from, the govt. However, it is still technically supposed to come to the rescue in time of tragedy. We can’t - shouldn’t move toward strict Social Darwinism or an “each man for himself” system of defense and security against attack/natural disaster. That’d be the end of the nation. Like it or not, you’re stuck with taking care of others. There’s nothing a civilized society can or should do about that. The questions NO raises are:
1. Where does that duty end; and
2. How do we teach people accustomed to a govt safety net for everything that they have to be responsible for their own lives?
I have no answers.
