Stefan Molyneux philosopher, ranting about whether we have choice or not, whether we are responsible for our own life or not.
Stefan is always though provoking and I´m starting to get what an influence he is on me. Respect Stefan for all your knowledge. People who are not redo and don’t understand him, start reading and get educated!!
Being poor is one of my own fears, I´ve seen what it makes to people, and I will try my hardest to keep myself from thence. I´m responsible for my own life and wellbeing, it should not burden others..

Defending Ayn Rand - Peter Schiff Radio Show May 14th, 2014
36:38 ”Somehow the idea has gotten across that libertarians have no respect for the poor, or dont like the poor. But I will contend that there is none that you treat with more contempt than the person you take away choice from. The most disrespectful condescending jerky thing to do another human being is to say to them >>you are not responsible for your own life. That is the greatest contempt that you can have for any human being. I mean we don’t even do that to cats for heaven sake! We train them to go in the litter box, we train dogs to go outside. Don’t poop on the rug. Go outside. We encourage. We will give choice to animals who licks their own genitals. But the idea that the poor might have anything to do with their own condition is incomprehensible to us. And that somehow them the people who grant moral responsibility to the poor, we are considered to be disrespectful to the poor but the people who say, >>well you´re not responsible for everything and by the way, you need blood money from the government just to survive, and you have no choice, no power, no capacity to change your station. Nothing to look forward to, nowhere to rise, nothing to achieve, nothing to gain, it´s not your fault!>> Those people paralyze the poor, and the more the poor listens to them, the more poor we get. But that’s what they want, because the poor are their crops, there farmers who grow the poor, in order to wave the poor around, to gain power over everyone else.” – Stefan Molyneux
