This kind of thinking leads to the conclusion that perhaps if those people are just destined to fail and will never provide any contribution to society......maybe we should just get rid of them. Restrict their rights to procreate and produce more genetically inferior kids who will never amount to anything either. Hrm...or maybe send those genetically inferior people to the gas chambers so that they will no longer weigh down the rest of us...where have I heard that before?? Can't quite place it...
Man, that's a leap!

I don't want to do anything about the non-contributors. Hell, I applaud their independence and celebrate their freedom. It is not necessary for a person to achieve anything at all in order for their life to have meaning. It's their life and it has meaning to them. Why do we feel so much angst when people make life choices that make us uncomfortable?
