Fats was pushing his great myth of Individualism in response to a caller who was upset because Fats thinks unemployment benefits promote unemployment. Here'san example he used to make his point:
Remember all the stories we've had over the years, folks? There was a business off the coast of North Carolina that took people out to feed some kind of exotic fish (I don't know what's out there) and the fish, whatever it was, after not too long a time became totally dependent on those tourist boats coming out and dropping the chum overboard. They stopped learning how to fend for themselves, because it wasn't necessary.
Mammal nature, human nature, whatever. It's what it is.
Fish aren't mammals, Pigboy, and would you be willing to claim that sharks forgot how to fend for themselves because of the slave trade?
