Oh okay, so you shouldn't mind if I send a rich guy into the vacuum of space unprotected then, if ones circumstances mean nothing.

Surely he could entrepreneur himself some oxygen while he's out there. Why would he need to be on Earth with breathable air? After all, personal choices are all that matter, right? So he should be able to succeed in any environment.

    Your analogy is ridiculous and is totally missing a huge point, circumstances obviously mean something if they're bad. If the millionaire finds himself with no money, that's just not a difficult circumstance. I think we can all agree that merely existing as a poor person in western society could never be considered to be harsh and unforgiving.
