Since when has it been considered "weak" to ask, want, apply for or seek help/monetary assistance?

Is that what this is about with the assholes who shout "WON HUNNRT PERCENT SELF-MADE, YEW LIBRUL PANSY!" the loudest?

I'm starting to think that it is. God forbid you need financial assistance in some period of your life, for your (or someone else's) health or to start a business; you don't want to be thought of as a "lazy, depependent pussy who can't stand on thur own two feets!!"

Has anyone ever asked these TeaHad cretins this?

I'm just bringing it up because for a group of people who claim to be rugged individualists, it seems they care an awful lot on how others view them on this issue.

1. If one of "them" needs it, they won't just ask for

assistance, they'll DEMAND it! In their eyes you are nothing but a lazy good for nothing who never worked hard in your life, but they have ALWAYS worked hard and deserve anything they want.

2. I heard that the best way to get a loan from the bank

is to have enough money to not really need it ...
