    I don't care ho much care they need or why they need it if they aren't worth providing for they aren't a part of society they are just a drain on it. there is no reason to support them.

    It isn't a government, a government implies rules, and formality that lacks in most comunity groups.
    So you think we should just get rid of the mentally challenged, physically handicapped, and severely mentally ill? How charitable of you.

    Consider how many revolutionary scientists, artists, and mathematicians have fallen into one or several of those categories.

    And consider that their genius can only be tapped by us making an effort to unlock it.

    This is why the world has moved away from such a tribalistic view. Because it fails to account for the diversity of what humans have to give, and it degrades the worth of people who are atypical, simply because you don't understand them.
