Reply #10: Here's some propaganda for you. [View All]

"An ownership society values responsibility, liberty, and property. Individuals are empowered by freeing them from dependence on government handouts and making them owners instead, in control of their own lives and destinies. In the ownership society, patients control their own health care, parents control their own children's education, and workers control their retirement savings."

Basically it says that if you are born with a lot of luck, intelligence and are able bodied you can take care of yourself. If you are born wealthy good for you. However if you are born disabled, become handicapped or cannot navigate the system, well, you'd better be good at scrawling on cardboard signs and standing on street corners. Oh, and you'll need to be able to beg. Too bad for you if you have loved ones to support. Next phase: Poorhouses and Indentured Servitude.
