The problem with it is that the bureaucracy is an apathetic floodgate against the perpetual need of the populous rather than expedient service providing
system. The same with the Healthcare system.
Hym "Ok, to use that as an example is so intellectually dishonest. 'If we give poor people money they'll end up coked out in a ditch' The people who are doing that are already going to do that. You just demolished your own argument with
Ben's gun control argument. 'We can't
ban guns because bad people
will get guns anyway'. The people who would be junkies are already junkies. So, nobody gets any money just because some people
will use the money for evil!? I might need money to not die one
day! Now replace the word money... with the word gun... Here- I'll just do it for you. 'So, nobody gets any guns just because some people
will us the money for evil!? I might need guns to not die one
day!' See that? It may be primitive but at least it's not self-defeating. How much did they give to elon in carbon credits? Is it more than 3 billion?
It's bad for people to shoot the
government's (The people's) money into their arms but the greatest thing ever when they shoot it into space? So, no, that's not a reason to NOT redistribute wealth to the bottom of the hierarchy. Yes the money is already being redistributed BUT where is it being redistributed to a place that it SHOULDN'T BE? (See the through-line there?) That's the core issue here. Does elon need it more than any random poor
person? To NOT GO BANKRUPT? Yes... Yes, absolutely... In general? No. I also don't think that the redistribution need to come from the
government, but rather, the employers or from the employers by way of the
government. If the government is giving you money (in any form) you should be paying it back to the people the government to the money from.... I forgot to use the word 'Capitalism'... Oops... Aw shit... Too many characters..."
