Sorry, what? Acknowledgemetns of basic reality are now "liberal talking points"?
Um, ok.
More the point, negative forms of dependency are fostered by reducing people's options, not increasing them. If you're really worried about dependency (and not, say, maintaining a status quo that features a cheap, easily exploited, and largely disposable labor pool) worry less about making life's basic necessities a reward and more about the kind of society that can develop when basic security is a baseline.
What you could have done was instead read it for what it is.
