Sure. What these people don't have is a right to my sympathy, or a right to expect me to like supporting them (whether directly through welfare, or indirectly through things like mortgage bailouts) when their wasteful ways make them go broke.

Live and let live.
But you do realize that it's supposed to be a two-way street? That the "let live" part applies to you, too? So often it gets translated to some people getting to have a party, and the rest of us having to clean up the trash afterwards.
