All I'm say is we make choices, and in a truely free society we can make any we choose, we suffer or enjoy the consequences of those choices.

Sometimes those choices are not good so we take risks. I'm trying to figure out why I should have to pay my hard earned money, I'm not rich either, to mitigate the risk others choose to take.

If it is a matter of some people starve while others achieve or the alternative of everyone sharing in mediocracy, I prefer to take my chances and risk starvation while having a chance at sucess for that is freedom.

It is inherent in the nature of personal responsibility that some people will not succeed and will face the ultimate price, while others succeed beyond their wildes dreams. Sounds harsh but that the way to have a society that can be great.
