I totally disagree with the government getting involved with having its citizens work for personal benefits. Other countries do this but this was not the intention of the United States government. As soon as government gets involved with personal things such as this, then eventually freedoms will be lost and mandates enforced---- all at our tax dollars.However, before I sound too harsh, I do appreciate and understand why many people, especially the youth, feel this way. The reason is because we are NOT doing it on a personal level in a privatized system to begin with. I say assuredly that our founding fathers rather all the "hand-outs", "entitlements" and so forth to help others would have been something we as private citizens would want to do on our own without the government's help. The fact that many people including our young ones find this appealing shows that there is indeed altruistic nature in some of us, but do not want to take the bulk of it on ourselves. Our founding fathers would be horrified to think that their descendants would not take it on to help others directly.As for college tuition, let's take an example. If each family of an average church gave just $10 to the church fund to help those who want to go to college for seminary, there would literally be hundreds of dollars a week, let alone several thousands in a year. That would be enough to pay two or three tuitions of a full time student.Well, someone says, we already pay too many taxes and can't afford that! That's my point. If we all did that to begin with, government would not have felt the need to extract even more tax dollars for the public welfare (over the years) and you probably pay over 3 times as much now to do the same thing! IN other words,we'd have more money today to do such things because something like the income taxes would not even exist.Think about it. But we decided to hoard our money, and now paying in becomes mandated instead of voluntary, and the amount we pay in is not nearly as efficient!
