In my experience, I have never learned something or developed a skill by way of someone else doing that thing for me. I have seen similar results with those I've taught and those others have taught. People do not learn without doing. Outside perhaps a very few exceptional individuals, the first step to success is almost always failure and overcoming those obstacles on one's own is absolutely necessary. Others can offer advice, guidance, correction, explanation, demonstration, but learning itself is an internal process. If I do your math homework for you, you will receive good marks, so long as I continue to do so. What is the likelihood of my continued aid ever helping you learn to do math? (I'm sure you would receive exceptional marks on your own, that not the point ^^) That same analogy can be applied to work and play and every other activity and it is one reason why I do not believe that the simple act of giving people money necessarily enables them in to amass or even acquire more of it. The other reason I don't embrace a universal basic income is because I see poverty as a symptom, not a disease itself. It is the result and while it may exacerbate other complications of the disease giving rise to it, it is not the cause. The source is general performance deficiency, or failure, arising from both internal and external sources. I simply do not believe that poverty causes people to fail. People become impoverished because they fail. Those who are unfortunate enough to be born into it generally remain there, but all do not. Some find a way out. If poverty were the source of failure, those people would not exist, but they do. Quote:

The reason I reject the libertarian left is because a government that assumes financial responsibility, must be empowered to control costs alongside revenues. Allowing a citizenry to do as they please when the government holds the pocket book is not a sustainable condition. The reason I reject the authoritarian right is because a government which possesses great power, but fails to adequately temper excellence, will simply be bought by the most successful entireties. all authoritarian systems will suffer to some degree from adverse selection and corruption, but it is far more difficult for specific entities if the environment does not permit the economic hegemony afforded by a wholly free market.
