No, you will have to find work to maintain the standard of living you want. The government can't guarantee you will get what you want, but you do have opportunities.

No.

You should be guaranteed the right to obtain a standard of living, but you need to do what you need to do legally to get it in the first place.

It appears they were advertised one, hence the size of the national debt.

Nope. If you are looking for a guarantee like that, move to France.

No

You have a right to succeed and also a right to fail

nope it is the land of opportunity the fed gov can't even clean up 1 state from 1 storm you want them to guarantee you a standard of living???

Such a thing cannot possibly be guaranteed.

This country could easily guarantee a minimum standard of living. That would mean bringing every American to a point somewhat above the poverty line. Rent, Food, Medical Care, and higher education would be accounted for. It's a disgrace that this country allows people to go hungry and without medical care. It's un-Christian, and we should stop calling ourselves a Christian country until we ensure that our fellow Americans are okay. - President Richard Nixon, a Republican-Conservative, understood this, and proposed a reverse tax which would bring every American up to this minimum standard. He also favored Universal Medical Care. - An educated American increases the productivity of the American worker and higher education should not be out of the reach of the average American. India graduates six times (percent-wise) the number of engineers that we do. - And no one should leave college with a mountain of debt to pay. - I worked as a dish-washer at a dormitory while in college. Today, my taxes are almost 40% of my income. I'd pay more to live in a moral society. - President Eisenhower, another Republican-Conservative warned us about the Military-Industrial complex that would eat up our tax money --and he was right.

That is a principle of communism. It is detrimental to all individuals to steal from the efforts of others to provide some meager existence for the effortless. Those most harmed are the supposed beneficiaries. Day to day, they find it easier to continue to take from the dole rather than redouble their efforts to improve their lot, especially considering that such efforts may require daily sacrifice that can last for many years. So, over time, the dependent stay dependent and never rise up as would happen if they applied themselves.

hell no. why should the lazy, uneducated, deadbeats of society be granted the same rights as hard working, ambitious, people who contribute to society

Guaranteed starvation unless you work. But all should be guaranteed work. +3
