people who behave like that have never known a day of hunger, a refusal from the oil man to fill the tank, a car that breaks down and cannot get them to work............. or a call from ANY bill collector........
Existential threats early in life condition a person to avoid such experiences at all costs.
Ultimately, the government is the benefactor of last resort........... once destitute, it is amazing how well off north americans actually are. Zero liberties, zero independence, but no one is
forced to live on the street.........
Some people have learned early on to make do with such a lifestyle.............. A desolate existence, the only freedom of which is "accountability". pretty chitty existence, if you ask moi.
