Hehe, twelve or fifteen years ago we had a little collision about right this, you saying what you just repeated, and me back then still being stupid enough to think the state should be responsible and that instead of voluntary charity people should be forced to pay mandatorily for it via taxes.
Boy, have I swung around in these years.
Has been a long thought voyage for me, it seems.
You already were right back then, of course. Today I completely agree.
Funny that some people strictly disagreeing with me on things around here hardly can imagine or remember that once, long time ago, I may have sounded like them. But as they say: if you are no socialist when you are are twenty, you are heartless, and if you still are a socialist when you are thirty, then you are dumb.
