Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!

The real reason is that conservative ideology dictates that society will have winners and losers who end up in the correct spot in the heirarchy if society doesn't interfere with the natural sorting.

So it follows that homeless people don't deserve a "handout" or a leg-up just because they squandered their opportunities.

Leftists think that an ideology follows from a moral interrogation of the world as it should be, whereas reactionaries think the highest good is done by ensuring that people are in their correct spot in the heirarchy in relation to others; since some people are inevitably going to be homeless, there isn't much to be done about it and the leftists complaining about it are just virtue signaling to get votes.

Their justification is irrelevant once you realize the actual ideological reasoning.

Edit: I'm confused by the downvotes. Anyone want to tell me how I'm wrong? This isn't my ideology, but I think it's useful to understand your opposition on more than a cartoon-villain level, especially since they are so effective at selling their ideas to low-information voters.

I've been promoted and the company still had to post the job publicly for a couple weeks to satisfy internal protocol. It's insanity.

Michael Flynn is an excellent counterexample though.

Ok, maybe if you're dying you can get the healthcare treatment that you need.

If you can find a doctor/hospital who will open themselves up to litigation and if you can get there. But you'd better be on the cusp of death!

Are we not merciful?!?

Let's go full Thunderdome and institute bust a deal, face the wheel too.

In a word: Conservativism.

[...] we can also trace a longer structural change in the imagination of the right: namely, the gradual acceptance of the entrance of the masses onto the political stage. From Hobbes to the slaveholders to the neoconservatives, the right has grown increasingly aware that any successful defense of the old regime must incorporate the lower orders in some capacity other than as underlings or starstruck fans. The masses must either be able to locate themselves symbolically in the ruling class or be provided with real opportunities to become faux aristocrats in the family, the factory, and the field. The former path makes for an upside-down populism, in which the lowest of the low see themselves projected in the highest of the high; the latter makes for a democratic feudalism, in which the husband or supervisor or white man plays the part of a lord.

I'm fine with him being on the $500 bill if it's a pic of his stroked out corpse holding the berder that finally got his cholesterol high enough.

You're a satirical genius! Can I have your autograph? I've never seen such a good impression of a rabid Muskrat before.

I'd love to see your material on sovereign citizens next; their delusions are even more fun IMO.

Trolls just aren't what they used to be these days.
