I couldn't agree more. But I'd add that what is even more angering is the instrumentality the democrats favor to enforce this "burden".

Why is it so taboo to say "I have no moral obligation to my irresponsible fellow man?" Why is the reality of social darwinism denied? America is unique in its refusal to address realities. No one will EVER stand up and say the following:

1. Its not wise to procreate if you can't afford children.

2. We ought to give free birth control to the impoverished.

3. A flat tax is the fairest system, and the only reason it isn't implemented is that its implementation would destroy entire industries and govt agencies, as well as eliminate many lucrative dodges for the wealthy.

4. Govt workers should be held to standards not unlike the "no child left behind" act, and they should not be able to retire early with lucrative pensions, unlike their counterparts in the private sector.

5. The drug war is a failure, both practically and intellectually; marijuana should be legalized because it is safer than alcohol, but again, to do so would hurt the alcohol industry and put a lot of people in law enforcement and the prison management businesses out of jobs. The money devoted to marijuana prosecution/investigation should be diverted to homeland security.

6. The Govt should not bail out airlines or subsidize farmers or engage in protectionist measures for the benefit of manufacturing or white collar workers whose jobs are outsourced. The free market should control.

7. The govt is not your parent and you should not think of it as a safety net. It provides protection and basic services - nothing more, nothing less.

These are just a few things that need to be said, but nobody wilkl ever say them.
