“Are you a socialist?” Ted Turner asked Carl Sagan. “I’m not sure what a socialist is,” Sagan replied. | |
But I believe the government has a responsibility to care for the people,” Sagan said. | |
“I’m talking about making people self-reliant, people able to take care of themselves,” he continued. “There are countries which are perfectly able to do that. The United States is an extremely rich country, it’s perfectly able to do that. It chooses not to. It chooses to have homeless people.” | |
