Businesses and billionaires milk way more off the system than those people you talk about do. All cutting off welfare subsidies to the poorest does is **** over future generations more. If you're going to rail against welfare, then rail against the system of economic oppression that makes it necessary. Bash the lack of decent paying work. Bash the cost of healthcare. Rail against the inequalities in the system that makes systemic generational poverty happen. Present solutions that pull people out of poverty instead of cutting taxes to the rich and trusting that trickle down economics, the free market, and non-profits will fix everything. They didn't with Reagan and they haven't in the last 50 years.
When did people stop having ****ing compassion in this world and when did it become about only helping the wealthy.
This is not true..
The Billionaires only have more ON PAPER..
But they are in fact not truly richer than anyone who makes ~$100,000 usd..
The life we live as americans is not improved by wealth beyond that income level..
Our true wealth is our TIME.. in this respect no one actually earns more than anyone else..
Time spent enjoying a coffee is the same as time spent chopping wood.. You do something, and time is Spent..
MONEY, in the hands of billionaires are squandered at times, This is certainly true.. But you can not blame them, They are only human and there is a limit to their inhibitions..
However, when we compare who is more valuable to society..
The do-nothing crowd is far less useful than a billionaire.
The reason being, the do-nothing crowd, is the consequence of overpopulation.. BECAUSE we have more than enough people, that's why there is excess capacity..
From the perspective of a completely unemotional, uninhibited social planner//god.. it's better to let excess capacity simply perish.. trim the fat..
And fundamentally, Population contraction is precisely this natural process.. (which is ongoing in all first world nations)
Now, Humans also have another challenge, that being Decadence.. If this happens continuously at unchecked levels, the population goes into collapse..
For example the introduction of Cheap heroin into a community..
But it does not have to be something so extreme, fast food, pornography, prostitution, All forms of reduced cost happiness..
The acceptance of these ideologies as --the norm--- is what ultimately drives decline
