Repeat after me, "the government is not a babysitter." Now, repeat that until you believe it. Seriously. This is the same reason why I believe we should abolish social security.

The point is, that people will be people, no matter what. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
