I would never suggest that anyone ought to live any specific way or at any specific "level" of comfort. As I said, there are many people that wouldn't like my quality of life for any number of reasons. I think beyond the basics, it's not governments duty to supply people with quality of life. However, the building blocks needed to provide such upward mobility: health, education and time need to be universally accessible.

Here's hoping for Star Trek.
