      From: wernerhetzner@gmail.com              From your post:       “        Here’s the real reason libertarians hate the idea. The welfare state        is a check against servility towards the rich. A strong welfare state        would give us the power to say Fuck You to our bosses—this is the power        to say “I’m gonna work odd jobs for twenty hours a week while I work on        my driftwood sculptures and play keyboards in my a chillwave band. And        I’ll still be able to go to the doctor and make rent.”        “              A welfare state goes bankrupt. Why? Because ‘us’ say Fuck Your to non-us       and play keyboards expecting non-us to pay for your doctor and your rent. How       long do you suppose the non-is will resist exploitation? This is why your       system can’t function        for long. Who the fuck is going to work so you can play? Why should you be the       boss?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
