NO!...it's not human to like "free stuff" because most understand that "stuff" isn't free, the perpetuation of the entitlement culture has just created the illusion and belief it's there for the taking and it's ok to participate...after all...everyone else is ...and conceding that "we all depend on something" as though that statement bears any relationship to an inane statement like "Perhaps we're all just dependent" like millions contractors, transportation workers and attorneys thriving under the chaos of regulatory change is just participating in inane diversion from subject...
human history is a perpetual struggle against dependence on those that foster dependence and use it to improve their own condition usually beginning with phony benevolent promises and ending in violence and misery
equating interdependent relationships that we might willingly enter into with dependent relationships that we may be forced into (for our own good or the good of the state) by a bureaucratic fiat or that employment in that bureaucratic state somehow entitles insulation from the realities of employment in the real world again entertains this stupid notion and deflects from the issue
"free stuff" and the idea that there should be no shame in living through the labor of others is a seed that has been sewn in this society for most of the last century by the "ruling" class, as it is being called....it is intended to weaken the human spirit and create a society that is more malleable to the whims of the "ruling class" which has clearly overspent it's promises...
conceding that "perhaps we're all just dependent" is handing over you life and the lives of your children to the ruling class who have no intention of slowing the growth of their state and is regulation and intrusions....makes me sick
dependence IS antithetical to freedom.....if "Perhaps we're all just dependent" then we are all losing freedom, many of us willingly it seems....this notion that greater dependence on a central government and all of it's wisdom and bread and circus will somehow make us freer people is a false promise...just ask the people of Detroit
