That;s the funny part. Imagine whatever shitty thing you have to about the poor and government and the relationship between them. Anything. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter. The fact of their poverty is still the problem to solve - unless we want to kill the poor. If they cant afford food because they're lazy assholes and the government doesn't exist to help lazy assholes, since their individual welfare is unassociated with the general welfare....then fine, are we executing lazy assholes?
As long as we're clear, lol. ARE THERE NO WORKHOUSES!
I would imagine he would love workhouses.
