Ayn Rand, arguably a strong proponent of "personal responsibility", required welfare at the end of her life. She made some justifications for how she could live off of welfare but still did it.

When times are personally good it's easy to make arguments about what people should do, but when you're in a situation with no support things feel a lot different.
