Quod Erat.. oh, you know..
And Vets are Like That too. I am finding ... fershure.
Everybody wants to be Special -- as long as there are enough non-combative proles who will continue to surrender Their Pie so that His is Bigger. Because 'everyone else is comatose, too'.

To each..
..according to their needs...
Yep, that'll work.
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

And without a soupçon of *Society Maintenance by Each
and Every beneficiary:
* 'fairly' 'apportioned'
Why, you get a vitriolic, sanctimonious and slogan-spewing dis-united crop of malcontents and a dysfunctional aggregate. Like Here, Now and further-on along ... the current path of terminal disintegration:
so evidently under way, if one Zooms-Out for an overall perspective. From time-to-time.
Keep whistling past that cemetery of more-More-MORE for the fewer and fewer, (up there in the 2%)
Everyone needs a leitmotif.
Hey.. Dickie Wagner wrote some beauts for various other kinds of Götterdämmerung (s)
But there are no guitars in those. Sorry.

Ah, I see...
...that one should work to have as many children as possible and inflate one's need...while at the same time invest the least amount in myself...because no matter what, the government will make sure that I want/need for nothing.
Any other method of thought leads to complete dysfunction.
Does that sum your argument up?
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

As Peter Geyl observes,
The man who has made up his mind for all contingencies will often be too quick for one who tries to understand.
Now you may parse 'merit-ocracy' -- as those who invent the slogans always make sure that they are personally entitled to the fullest-measure of that 'merit', before the slogan's release. cha cha etcetera

could you point to some place in
history where perhaps a model has been in place that would suit your purpose? Something of this planet perhaps? While you have traditionally rallied to the cause of "what do conservatives want to conserve?", I don't believe you have yet to promote Ashtotopia to anyone, either.
While your snark certainly does entertain...I am reminded of that great literary scholar S Wright, who noted...
"A friend of mine once sent me a postcard with a picture of the entire planet Earth taken from space.
On the back it said, Wish you were here"
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

The problem with the Reactionary view is apparent:
If something beneficial to society as a whole Didn't happen-exactly In The Past® --
It Couldn't Happen in any next.
Substitute Reactionary for the modern 'Conservative', 97.7% identical.
Pity the word has been elided within the billions of soundbytes spewed all over the æther.
Guess most of the current writers are too young ever to have heard it.
(Sorry, there's no Ashtopia to be outlined.
After all, there wasn't one way-back. How could there be one next?)

Thanks for clearing that up
the other ways are bad...your way doesn't exist. It could.
Hence the SW quote.
I'll anxiously await Zefram in your honor.
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

I could..and often do...
...but prefer to deal with issues within a defined set of reality that doesn't require 6.7bn "aha" moments to work.
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.
