Of course not. The Golden Rule, at the heart of good morals is: Treat others the way you want to be treated yourself. Do you want to be stolen from, or would you rather be secure in your property and possessions? Then don’t advocate theft. At its core, it’s immoral to force non-consumers to pay through higher taxes for what other consumers are going to use. And when government meddles in the market, picking winners and losers, we all become the loser eventually. Subsidizing a weak business does not make it stronger. In a way it’s like how a bone in a cast will become weaker if left in place too long. If there’s a much cheaper option, then perhaps locally this has become an obsolete industry and it’s time for the workers to re-tool their personal skillset. But by all means don’t be like these guys in this video, asking for the government to support obsolete industries. https://youtu.be/_tjZchYXMmA
