A real Republican holds a person responsible for his or her actions, but never his or her circumstances.
Well spoken, but I’m not sure why this is a Republican virtue.
As I am sure you realize, John, this was meant as a reminder to my fellows here on the right rather than an attempt to claim exclusivity over said virtue. I do believe, however, that any system, policy, or law designed to guarantee equality of economic outcomes treads into the territory of moral hazard. The guarantee of reward without respect to the quality of effort paves the path toward decline and ruin.
