That’s fine, but the incongruence comes when one expects unlimited supply of healthcare and a cash payment for decades in old age. Especially if one didn’t raise enough productive kids to pay for it, so then the question becomes if you’re not planning for tomorrow, why are others who are planning for tomorrow paying for your tomorrow?
As the other comment pointed out; living for today doesn’t mean NOT planning for the future.
The key is not assuming that some future date will bring happiness - that is something that has to be found each day.
nice try ron paul
Puzzling reply (assuming ron paul is being used as a pejorative), considering your adjacent comment seems to agree with my sentiment.
no, not even slightly. Im very much in favour of socializing all sorts of things.
Ron paul was used to describe the sort of (seemingly) libertarian "leave me alone, i dont want to know you. please go die" views you espoused.
