The Earth has to carry me, yet I pay it nothing for the inherent air it provides. My parents have carried me through my early life yet I have to pay no dues to them. However, it seems when I become "independent," those of the collective claim I have a bill to pay throughout my life and that I have to pay dues just like them.
I can only ask why it is a sin to rely on the other as long as the other is willing to freely give it? Do you subscribe to a form of forced Egalitarianism? This philosophy tells me that everybody should serve everyone in the same regardless of personal desires. Is this what you believe in?
Do you believe the governmental and corporate functions of the world should force me into a job so all things can be fair and just?
I don't believe significant suffering is necessary. I do not believe I owe anything to anyone that has chosen their suffering. If people choose to provide things, I should not be obligated to pay a tax in gratitude with every service. I can only term such a relationship one thing: Slavery. The slave owes his life to his master. In this vision, I owe my life to the collective on the premise that my existence would be nothing without everyone else thus I should pay until I am deemed worthy of a title of independence.
I find this to be an endless series of conditional relationships. The concept of "earning my place and my comfort" is based on the idea of their being something to earn. It's a false concept to me that is based on me being obligated to be a certain way. It has no justification to me. It sounds like to me a series of schools and parents indoctrinated children into the ideal of earning their way to the top of pyramid and then resting.
I do not find any justification for the idea that one has to earn what is given to them. I find no justification that my reliance connotes that I am truly a burden when what I have is freely given.
