I’m not saying the government shouldn’t help the people who need it though. Bring back FDR. I think that’s the big reason why I’m not actually conservative. The help should be there, but people should have an internal desire to rely on outside forces as little as possible. I think many already have that desire, but not enough by far.
I think the atomization of society shows that its not just a desire but that independence is a social pressure. “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” is the air we breathe. Thats why business people like musk deny they got say, emerald mine money; the social pressure to seem self reliant is far greater than the social pressure to tell the truth
