Nope, not buying the argument for one moment. That attitude is symptomatic of 25 years of 'everyone gets a medal for participation' and not picking winners and losers. As an adult YOU have the RESPONSIBILITY to look after YOURSELF.

It's surprising just to see how many adult children we're living with in society.
Just wow.
