The giving away shit for free I get, grew up among that population in Applachia. But while the distribution of intelligience in humans is quantified as normal and the advantages/disavantages of calculating that are known, no one likes talking about the right skewed distribution of results generated from the work/experience/talents of those that distribution are built on.
That would be a nice conversation, and would seem to make it possible to penalize the successful (the way they think of it) more heavily to subsidize the poor/unaccomplished/"I want free stuff" crowd with a little rearranging of priorities on the taxation side, without dragging in all the gender bending nonsense, "how dare you not know I am a pan/cis/bi/hetero/homo/trans individual you should be arrested!" into it.
