Yes, absolutely, even if I want socialism, some welfare state stuff is of course necessary not to have an absolutely horrid society. We'll have to pay pensioners and take care of people who end up born with Down's Syndrome etc.

Also, some of your quotes aren't actually from my comment, have you run this through an LLM or something?

Sorry "OP" probably should have been "OC" for original content. And it probably should've been a separate reply (avoiding topic drift).

Oh, I see.

No, it's not confusing it all, I just sort of filed your comment as slightly disordered and then didn't give it the focus it needed, so I missed it, but it's perfectly sensible.
