Wrote the person who just repeated some random Ayn Rand bull. Seriously? You are accusing me of trolling? With that material? :D
> I am 100% in support of groups working together voluntarily and looking out for each other. The system you advocated for is not that, and opposing it does not make one "lone" or "greedy".
I wonder if you are really so naive or if you got so used to repeating that as an excuse. If we'd live in a society where voluntary donations would suffice, we'd not need laws or regulations.
> Imposing a "choice" of compulsory payments or eviction is not the strong caring for the weak, but rather the strong preying upon the weak.
You must be from the US where there are two parties and you can buy into a political position form the national to county level. In other parts of the world, there is still democracy and yes, none of those are perfect but if you consider any serious statistics on where people are most happy, it's those (really) democratic countries with a wide ranging social system [0]. So please...spare me that Atlas Shrugged Fan Fiction...
> Civilized society persists despite taxes, not because of them. Theft is not civilized, and treating it as legitimate is corrosive to any civilized society.
Oh so taxes are theft now? And you accuse me of unworthy comments? This is hilarious.
> Obviously they aren't supposed to just die. That question was not asked in good faith.
Nothing...seriously not a single sentence you've issued here is something someone with a healthy moral compass would consider "in good faith". Your answer here is literally: they should have a go fund me to save their lifes...I mean...lol...I don't even know how to answer to so much crap. I really hope I'm talking to a child because I have worked in some really terrible Fortue companies and I haven't met anyone who'd fall so deep down the "Wolf of Wallstreet"-LARP.
Edit: ok, I've had to look you up and it wasn't that hard because you 'muricans have no sense of data protection (or any laws for that) and hell, where do you even get those ideas from? You are some random tech guy and an aerospace company with a career which didn't even touch areas where this kind of talk would be something to come close to. Who the hell do you think you are? Some random financial crisis would throw you onto the street. Who do you think will make a go fund me for you? Your colleagues? You probably even vote for the red party...I don't even...
>Who the hell do you think you are? Some random financial crisis would throw you onto the street.
And here the true colors emerge. You pretend to care about supporting others, but you take the first opportunity to denigrate someone for your perception that they are not rich enough to weather a storm.
No one here has shit-talked you because of your finances. No one here has lambasted you because of your occupation or station in life. No one here has accused you of wanting compulsory social securities, or not wanting them, on account of your occupation or finances.
>You are some random tech guy and an aerospace company with a career which didn't even touch areas where this kind of talk would be something to come close to
And what? Does one have to have special qualifications to comment on the topic of how their own earnings are to be spent?
>You probably even vote for the red party
You go on about democratic ideals, yet you criticize someone for engaging their civil liberties to vote in that system?
> And here the true colors emerge. You pretend to care about supporting others, but you take the first opportunity to denigrate someone for your perception that they are not rich enough to weather a storm.
No, that's what you want to read because what I actually wrote would hurt your world view too much. That's why I repeat it again: THE SYSTEM AND IDEOLOGY YOU LOVE WOULD CRUSH YOU.
> No one here has shit-talked you because of your finances...[yahda no you yahda]
So now that I used your own world view on yourself, you're hurt so much that you not only drop the whole topic but roll on the floor crying? Already? Look at you how desperately you try to twist my simple words so it somehow might make you look better. Look how weak you are. Your personal crisis in your own world didn't even start and you're broken already. Look how easy it was. And you think you can survive in this evil and anti-social society you cherish so much if you hit a true bump?
Pathetic.
Luckily in true democratic and social systems there would even be a space for a broken and weak person like you who had a bad luck, lost his job or health. A whole nation would come to help you out with everyone giving a bit of their wealth. Lucky for you, you can move to one of those countries since the one you're in now will kick your ass if you fall and if you open your eyes on your way home in a few hours, you might see those victims of your greedy and selfish vision. Victims without gofundmes who will die in poverty without you giving a damn. Even though it could easily be you.

Lol and I'm supposed to be the "anti-social" one, after you've written this drivel?
I've survived in a number of nations and varying societies, from US to Syria to Paraguay. I've survived homelessness, war, unemployment, and other challenges without turning to involuntarily funded social security. I've voluntarily spent tens of thousands to support loved ones. I'm trying to live the voluntary life I preach, or at least move closer to it; of course both you and I are flawed.
I'm not sure what the full range of systems are under which I would survive, or at least not be 'CRUSH'ed under. But I do know I will survive just fine without reading further your anti-social ramblings. Good day.
