ME: how people could teach someone how to do something for themselves, rather then let the government do it for them.
ME: I believe there were two issues in that thread, the first responders, and the lack of self reliance americans have in general.
ME: im sorry, if you dont agree, or dont accept this answer, but this me being as honest as possible.
ME: as for first responders, If they are un-able to work, I am ok with giving them financial aid, for their bravery.
ME: if they have a medical condition, that requires expensive treatment, I am ok with paying that.
ME: this was a one time extraordinary event, and first responders cannot just get over it, that is the only part i disagree with, it was the spirit of his post, the americans can achieve maximum results, not by relying on the government to do things for them, and not believing in themselves, but by having a support system, friends, family, the community, to help them achieve their own dreams and goals, but not do it for them, thus giving the person a sense of accomplishment and a boost of self esteem, and with that the self confidence to over come bad times too
Put it in context and get back, OK?
