We live in a society where a small portion of the population puts in the work to develop the necessary skills, takes the risks and makes the personal sacrifices to build what is necessary and desired in the economy. Why should we have equality of outcomes when people are so unwilling to share the effort that is required to provide those outcomes?

State your definition of "take the risks".  My understanding of risk is that it is a form of a calculated gamble that may or may not work out, and the bigger the risk, the more likely you are to have down side that is bad if it doesn't work out. 

So, do you stand by the video in stating that people who are disadvantaged should die, just like animals?


Maybe you should read my post where I clearly stated:

"While it is completely reasonable to take care of those individuals who have physical, mental or emotional reasons why they cannot become productive members of society, and society should ensure that the most basic necessities of life are not denied to anyone regardless of the choices they make, those individuals who put in the work, develop the skills, take on the risk, and make the personal sacrifices to build what is necessary and desired in our economy should be able to be rewarded for their contribution; and those individuals who refuse to make those choices should not be able to steal their rewards through tyranny of the majority."
