You're kidding, right?
What's your alternative, then? You'd rather authoritarianism? Or maybe that plutocratic idea we've been throwing about.
There's no such thing as free money; not even within a social program.
You really don't understand what socialism is. You've yet to demonstrate as much, at least.
I apologize if I've misread your post. It's rather confusing and incoherent, not to mention logically unsound.
Let me know.

how the hell do you people keep missing it.
we're insulated. weak. we love being told what to do. we love having the government in our pockets taking our money. but it doesn't matter to us lazy university students. we can just bounce around on our padded social-safety castles. the government takes money from me every time i buy something! The government takes money from everybody at every possible situation. We've got mommy and daddy's cars and money, who cares about banking savings for healthcare because everyone else will front the bill. My choices don't matter and that's the way i like it. I can walk around and do jack-all all day and still get by! What a world we live in. But of course my free time and leisure is really through no work of my own. I can go get a free cheque every month, and you all pay for it.

break a leg a few years down the road?! who cares! The liberals will pay for me!
have kids a few years down the road?! Who cares! The leftists will suckle it for me!
I've got an essay to write, step up NDP!
Of course, my only choice would be to write it on organic, fair trade, locally sourced paper- otherwise the feds might come for me.
Handjobs for all. But if you don't like handjobs, we'll stick you in jail.

alternative is telling the government to gtfo of my bankbook. Stop taking my tax money to "pay for stuff" and let me "pay for stuff". nice. simple. transparent.
