Bass v 2.0
Biblical Warrior For God.
I have seen more than a few self described "conservatives" on this board make statements to the effect; "The government has done nothing to help me be successful", or "I made my own money with no help from the government", or "I owe my success to no one but myself". While I think I understand the underlying concept these folks are speaking of, do they/you truly believe that our government has had no hand in creating the landscape that has allowed them/you to be successful and to have the things that you have? Just asking for clarification.
The people who make those statements are not conservatives, they're individualists who live is an idealistic world and like to credit themselves for everything. They're being intellectually dishonest.
We don't even know who those people are or if they exist anywhere outside VY's head.
I've seen that ilk in this forum, that type of thinking would only work in an idealistic, perfect world.
