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..."
