Also there is a limit to what some people are able to do. one of my freinds, who does need alot of medical help but does not get it...has alot of major mental issues that make it realy hard for her to work. Not to get into Details, be she has been abused and had some bad crap happen to her since she was a kid and it has screwed her up bad...But she is not able to realy get the mental health needed to help her get to the point she could hold any real job. Maybe she could find a job, but those jobs would not pay for her medical costs..and She would be realy hard pressed to find a non government health care plan that would take her right now...one key thing she has is Post traumatic Stress Disorder from some of those things that happened to her. IF she had say served overseas and came back with it, people would understand and not yell it was there personal responsibility to just ignore it and get back to work...they would fully support giving that person the help needed to try to get them back into working...But since my freind has a reasons that you don't want to come out and say what happened to just anyone, she would be judged as just needing to go and take responsibility and man up and just work. Ignoreing the fact she wishes should hold a job, and get some money to help get her out of a bad situation, but her mind does not work right , and its not as easy as some think.
All this Macho tough Personal responsibility crap, its stuff that only holds true in some fairytale land. A land people like to believe existed at one time, but never really did. Old myths that never need to bother with the real details.
