Father, mother, and two kids are living their merry lives. Father gets cancer and has to stop working. Leaving works means getting dropped from his healthcare policy. Father now has to find it own healthcare... but no one will take him because he's got cancer and cancer is expensive. Father is now stuck paying for literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in treatments out of his own pocket. Mother goes to work. What about the kids? The kids have to drop out of highschool at 16 and get jobs to help put food on the table. Their future is shot. They were 4.0 students, bound for good colleges, now they're working at McDonald's. Father dies. Mother is now old and burned out. Kids are in their late 20's with no highschool education and they're forced to keep working to support their mother who had no retirement savings because it all went to her husband's medical bills, rent, and clothes for the kids. Mother dies. Kids are now in their 50's with no retirement savings, no education, and no hope for what's left of their future.

So we've throw an entire generation down the toilet because society didn't want to pick up the tab for father's cancer treatment. The same father that worked a 9-5, paid his taxes and was a contributing member of society. It's called giving back, and it's not voluntary because it's OWED.

No matter if you need to work at Mc Donalds 12 hrs a day (which is not the rule), if you put some effort, you can also finish highschool, college and a master. With some effort from you. Or you can learn some plumbering or something, and you will be doing good too.
The choice is in the individual.

Not everyone is born into the conditions that allow them to do all of these things. This is basically the Just World fallacy

Sure. You are responsible, a hard worker, smart and good looking. I'm lazy, stupid, ugly, I like drugs and to party all day long.
Can you please send me some btc, bro, so I can cope with that differences ? Cool
