Do you think the government should help people in need or not?

Simple? Like the fact you didnt use the word government in the OP? Are you changing the goalposts already or are you just lazy forming a question?

We already have safety nets... Family, community, job-related, etc. They are there regardless...

No, I dont think the government should help individuals in need.

I support a safety net as long as it's just that and not a way of life for some work shy sponging fucker that doesn't want to work for a living

I support a safety net not tied to the government. We have charities that provide for the needy, let them do their thing.

If things radically changed with the way government operated then a local safety net might be a good idea.

A net can catch a person from falling too hard. It can also be used to encompass a person and make them a captive.

Which kind of net are you proposing?

Your statement is fraught with error.

I'm opposed to the safety net.
The free market and private charity can take care of the indigent.
Otherwise It's theft by government and rape

Don't you keep a net, a mask, shovel and some rope in the trunk of your car?
