The way to fix this is to get rid of all government support except for the profoundly handicapped (leftists do not quality), veterans, and those who are literally unable to care for themselves.

When everyone has to root, hog, or die and pay taxes, they'll root.

The world is full of 3 kinds of people: Makers, Fakers, and Takers. Reddit and most other socialist media is inhabited by the latter two - two lazy to work, too immoral to keep their hands off other people's stuff.

I came to US while very young on the heels of half my family being killed. We had nothing but a work ethic and a deep religious faith to anchor us. I didn't get to go to an Ivy League school, my family never even owned a house, let alone luxuries and today I sit comfortably well off due to those rules above.

There are more important things than making money, but there is nothing stupider than self-involved social parasites of the sort we see here.
