@Cycloptichorn,
I care, but it also means that people should care for themselves. Even birds kick the birds out of the nest to fly, but only after they nurtured the eggs and fed the babies before they were on their own. I am not opposed to helping people, in fact quite familiar with it, in fact Americans are very charitable, especially Republicans, but I think it is not the responsibility of government to rob one person to give it to another, to the extreme. That is not what freedom and liberty is about. Millions gave their lives for freedom, and I have not given up on it, maybe you have?
P. S. I am okay with government helping in the most dire of cases, along with private charities pitching in, as well as families helping families, but that is far far different than seeking to level the playing field, to make people equal.
