from “The idea of a welfare state in a future scenario of great scarcity”
“Every human being should have the right to live and should have some minimal economic support. Those who do not have such support should get it, they should get it from the community to which they belong…each person has dignity, not only physiological needs. Therefore, the aid that is needed should not be given in a humiliating way. Such aid is not charity, but communal sharing through a general welfare arrangement.”
-Gunnar Skirbekk
