living off the virtues of others


savings

lenient lenders


bountiful donations

enough to keep
us
each and every one of us
out of misery???


the indigent
hardly
trust the kindness of others
that far


these elements
of our voluntary
transfer system
have different lessons for
their recipients

very different
from entitlements


drafted charity

our blessed
compulsory universal system

made up
out of
inter indifferent human parts

yes
drafted charity
and forced fellowship
and
blind solidarity

based on
a tax and entitlement
system

automatic impersonal

extraction
and receit

of pay in
and
pay out

earned benefits
form a swing category

forced savings
is quite different
in "feel"
from
forced giving

the forced savor may see
the for hizerrself future entitlement
side to it
the what goes comes back
side

trust in the system
like trust
in a t bills payback ???

yup nominal
assurance

but what it will be worth
that too more
or less
with indexing

but
the forced giver may only
see the immediate recipient
worthy or unworthy

"i'll get mine if .."
is not automatic
might even be repugnent

this feels coercive

"i'd rather give ..voluntarily
and to whom i find worthy"

---------------

in all cases
obviously
both sides exist
in some form
or other

if the system is functioning correctly
there is no storage

---------------
insurance??

the pooled risk fund
may make it conveniently
lottery like

with one huge diff

perfected systems of insurance
unlike a lottery

maust make sure winners
have no control over
their selected
by keeping
the loss to marginal participants
at least equal
to the benefit

most dramatic case:

no plausible
suicides

the red neck soldier thinking
"i'm worth more
dead then alive "

being compt for loses can't feel
like lucky

but like simply made closer to whole


and yet the uncertainty
of the get back

the inevitably veiled
proceedings of any transfer
that is not "refundable"

has no cash value ...

forced into
a system like that
may very well
after all
lead to
" i doubt i'll ever get
not just give here"

youth can feel
a long way from
the give back end of these systems

rooting
them in decency isn't enough

they require
a mild reverential demonstration
of trustworthiness

or
a katrina like hazardous warning
may lead to sudden
reversion of
faith in reciprocity
the bucket brigade
mutual barn raising
aspect
the i give now
you gave then
others will give next time

into

i'll never see the like of what i give now

and few of us are that into lone ranger acts
we are forced to perform
and received
without gratitude
but entitlement

let this system deteriorate
and ......
you get
rip off welfarization

not mutual
solidarity

the pimpers
of poverty and indolence

elected to office by
the fools and bums majority

using their state power
to take from
the worthy
and give to the dirty
-------------
spotlight item

compulsory insurance

we go it for
all car bodies
and soon all
our bodies

its a way to put the faire back in
welfare

equal sacrifice equal entitlement

virtue may be
not taking
what one's entitled to
