That's where we differ philosophically. To me, a country should afford me all the opportunity to be successful. It has no requirement to insure that I become successful.
And I have other issues with it. I feel a government should never be able to take your property, for the sole purpose of giving it to another person. A free country is supposed to protect you from such actions. Socialized programs are in violation of this right. |
1. in the UK, the welfare state does not ensure you success, merely a basic standard of life, so you can pursue success.
2. wrong, stupid misrepresentation of how state housing works, state housing buys houses from private companies to lease to people or the government itself gets pays people to build the houses in the first place, which is also good as it creates jobs for people.
