Is it moral to assist people with disabilities?
This is a tough question, sure, these people have a hard time accomplishing tasks, but who is responsible for their current condition? Lets say that the payment of social security works like jury duty, and it is a random lottery where you have to go find this person and give them money, are you going to be willing to do this? People with disabilities have national institutions to help them, both deaf and blind people have respective technical and liberal arts colleges, so why do we need to assist them financially? What about survival of the fittest, do we really want someone with a crippling genetic defect raising a family of three children and for those children to pass on his defective gene?
I think that just like myself, people with physical and mental disabilities should have to pave their own way. I am not responsible for their condition, so i don't care what their issue is.
In a previous blog you talked about fairness/equality. This blog reminded me of that, in that people with disabilities are essentially not equal to a person without disabilities, so in all fairness they need the financial support and such.
ReplyDeleteZach,
ReplyDeleteYou described the definition of liberalism and bashed the social programs liberals fight so hard for. You are a conservative after all.
i am not conservative, i dont hate gay people, and i dont force people o have children so they can grow up unwanted.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get that definition from? That sounds more like a radical evangelical republican.
