Unless the person in question is a thief, they pay for what they take out and on goes the cycle.

Yeah, that's not how it works... as someone stated in response to you already. There are plenty of people that don't put in anything and may not have done anything to deserve it (like me for instance).
I understand people get welfare and social security so they can survive and some people need it for good reasons.. But what you just say in your last response doesn't go for everyone.

No.
Some would argue that the people collecting the money that gets paid out into programs like welfare and social security are the thieves. That they are your benefactors.

Lots of stuff. I'd like to think I've made an impact.

I don't really know why society invested in me. I'm no Steve Jobs. I guess society took me in when I was young hoping I'm the next Bill Gates or something. Then again society takes every kid to maximize its chances.
I wasn't one of the lucky ones born with a passion and the opportunity to develop it to a maximum at a young age.
I dunno what the future holds for me but one thing is for sure; The future isn't what it used to be.

Well to be honest, I have recently discovered a passion in reading. I began by reading paperback fiction books. I now moved on to books that can teach me stuff. I'm currently reading some of Richard Dawkins work about evolution.
I don't know how this kind of knowledge will help me. It's not something I can monetize. It seems that monetization of your passion is what is encouraged in the society we live in. Maybe one day I'll stumble upon a book that truly gives me an idea I can profit from.

Who cares they're a buch of retards anyway.
Not to simply ridicule your question but no one deserves anything but to die. There are processes that are generally self sustaining both biologically and culturally and you are merely caught up in several of them. Its nothing more or less than that.

Dawkins is brilliant, a personal idol of mine. I own quite a few of his books myself. You have very good taste.
