On his radio show today, Dennis Prager said: “There is nothing in life more easily adapted to than being given things for free. And when they are taken away, not only are you angry, you feel like a human right has been deprived. I have a right to that money. The first time people get something for free, they feel lucky. From the second time on, they feel entitled. It makes a worse human being.”
“If you are middle-aged or older, isn’t one of your nightmares that you will be dependent on others? That you would have to be taken care of by others? Then why isn’t it a nightmare to be taken care of by the state? It’s OK because the state is anonymous? I don’t want to be taken care of by people who know me but I do want to be taken care of by people who don’t know me.”
