Our society is not inclined to allow people to exist in abject poverty.

Of course not.

There is a difference between 1) the government universally sending monthly checks when people retire to prevent their ending up in poverty and 2)letting them do their thing and then, if some squander their money and end up in poverty, sending the squanderers monthly checks to get them out of poverty.

I'm asking why the former is better than the latter.
