Seems the left doesn’t want people to learn how to feed themselves. Why give a man a fish when you can teach him to fish?

“Seems the left doesn’t want people to learn how to feed themselves.”

The Left does not comprehend that wealth is fragile: it must be created, and is frequently destroyed.
The Left believes wealth is fixed and durable; it must merely be redistributed (by compulsion if necessary).

“Why give a man a fish when you can teach him to fish?”

The Left think fish just appear on grocery store shelves, pre-cut & pre-wrapped & ready to cook; they think consuming a fish is balanced by just-as-trivial appearance of one on a shelf.
The Left have no comprehension of the enormous effort required to create & maintain a system whereby fish appear on grocery shelves, and how quickly that system can collapse - producing no more ready-to-cook fish. It’s magic, it just happens. As such, they have no interest in learning how to fish - much less teach others to.
