People allow themselves to fail and become victims of circumstance.


Following that logic, then the people IN the WTC buildings are also as

well
then......


No it does not follow. The people in the WTC buildings were subject to a
circumstance that no one could ever have even guessed might happen or
foreseen might happen. That was not within their power to prevent or

solve.

According to your statement, an absolutism, yes they were in control. THEY
chose to work in that building. THEY chose to go to work that day, not
calling in sick or taking a vacation day.

No you are misinterpreting my point of view. There was no data for them to
base a choice on so no choice was truly possible and there was no
possibility for them to control their fate. The WTC terror allowed no more
choice than a lightning bolt does.

However people who chose to stay on welfare instead of move when the local
economy in their area crashed, have chosen to fail. They have data. The
local business closed. They can evaluate or guess whether it will ever
reopen. They can choose to follow the jobs or they can choose to stay there
and be poor. There are still people in Portsmouth, Ohio waiting for the
steel mills to reopen. These mills closed decades ago yet people are still
waiting.
