A fair and equitable government would NEVER stop being responsible for every one living a life to the best of their ability. A government of a Democracy should be willing to care for "the least among us". The idea is to tax the successful in order to provide minimal housing and food for the unsuccessful. Some people are born with birth defects and low intellect. That is no fault of their own. Being rich or even above average is a combination of LUCK and hard work.
