Why millennials are drawn to socialism

[GODZILLA]

What if some of us like me and several others for instance do not want to pay for someone else? I look out for myself, I am a hard working American that minds their own business

You've already been supported by everyone else. This is what allows you, and everyone else in your country, to be a hard working American. For example you pay taxes for a police force and the fire brigade yet other people are the ones who need to use them. Other people's taxes have paid for your education.

If this wasn't the case then you'd have to spend most of your time protecting your belongings from thieves and fire with no skills to look after yourself. That's if you weren't already enslaved and working with no wages. It's how society works. Money is spent for the good of everyone.

Take my example of Germany giving people 2/3rd of their previous wage when they become unemployed. This allows people to find a job suitable for their skill set. If there was no unemployment benefit then people would have to take whatever they could. This would mean that many of the skilled work force were working in unskilled jobs and unable to devote the time to finding work that properly exploited the skills they have to offer. This would mean that the economy would not be working as well as it could. The same goes for subsidised health care. The strength of Germany's economy testifies to the efficacy of this method.

The 'I'm alright Jack' attitude is what's killing America's economy. People who have already benefitted from being supported by others being unwilling to help invest in the country's future.

I should mention I did pay for my college out of pocket with my own money. But i imagine you were talking about the public education system in K-12. And I could probably defend myself since I own multiple firearms and other weapons and understand self defense. But good point nonetheless.
