Are you wealthy? Like really, really wealthy?

Im talking multiple properties owned and owning a successful business kind of wealthy.

If not the “personal responsibility” phrase was invented to dupe people just like you.

What part of letting the elderly rot, starve and suffer because they didn’t make the “right” choices sounds good and moral to you?

I said a component, not the whole thing. Right now there's waaaay too much "personal responsibility". I've already said I'm in favor of universal basic income. I just think people also need some incentive to save. Or to increase earnings.
