This doesn’t make sense-
How many have access but would rather pay for Comcast and get superb ER care rather than no cable and the average citizen’s expensive appointments.
Many… but I do not expect people to act rationally. Nor do I believe that people are autonomous as you believe they are.
Autonomous to what extent?
Personally sovern, not significantly influenced by irrational passions.
Sovern? Not a word.
meant to type sovereign,Sovern? Not a word.
You really need to get out more. Most people should be autonomous (able to live independently). Why wouldn’t they be? There are some that wouldn’t have that ability…but very, very few.
Hmmmm… I think you are referring to people who make stupid decisions that jeopardize their financial standing. Drug addiction, overspending, and poor family planning (referring to Holy Matrimony, not planned parenthood), are things the government has little power to control. The U.S. gov has nearly completely accounted for the poverty due to classism by way of massive entitlements. Ultimately, the rest is up to society to fix these grievances itself. This is highly unlikely, and therefore so is the eventual end to poverty.
Ah…I may have figured that out…if it made sense. In 99.9999% (and that may be a little generous) of normal usage, you wouldn’t refer to a person as being “sovereign.” Independent or self-reliant would be a more appropriate term.
I believe we see here another key to this viewpoint.
The lad has now stumbled and fallen flat over the question no proponent of nannyism can answer:I believe we see here another key to this viewpoint.
The belief that people are not responsible for their own actions.
Of course, now we have to figure out who or what is controlling us all…
If people are not independent and capable of controlling their own lives, who is capable of governing them? Are not the governors also people? And just as flawed and incapable as those they govern?
