Warren Control

I read this comment on Mish yesterday (scroll down through the comments, JS-Kit is having problems again):
If you think about, what are most people looking for out of life? Happiness, security, freedom with little to worry about or fear. It's very simple. And that is what the Danish system offers. Which is why they are happy, even if they pay 70% towards taxes.
I am reminded of Cowslip's Warren from Watership Down. Weird things begin to happen when you have no worries and someone is always there to feed you.

The most important thing missing from the quote, and the thing that shows how stupid this kind of thinking is...is not having to work very hard.

Screw the hard workers, innovaters and risk takers.
