Self-reliance is adultish, not childish.

[tovej]

Expecting that everyone in society should be self-reliant, and that resources should not be managed socially is naive. It's a maximally inefficient and cruel way to organize society.

[WalterBright]

I didn't say "everyone".

[tovej]

No, but you did say every adult. That's what I meant by everyone.

[WalterBright]

I didn't say "every" either.

[tovej]

You say adults should be self-reliant. That's a categorical statement. That means it should apply to "every" adult.

Do you want to continue to play pedantic whack-a-mole? I can go on forever.
