[QUOTE="DavidMcmillan, post: 3401298, member: 11749"] That's why we vote. Be involved, speak up, get to know your representatives, volunteer in the schools, many opportunities. You are correct, things certainly can get out of control. So work to insure that they don't. With a little effort, you will learn that most of the elected reps, especially local ones, are normal folks, trying to improve things. Individual responsibility is absolutely required, but like many other "requirements" not everyone takes those responsibilities seriously. Many spend family money on guns, boats, booze, tattoos, etc. instead of what we consider as "our responsibility". Some folks are truly disadvantaged and do not have the funds. We live in the best nation in the world, and part of what makes us great is our desire to see everyone's true needs met. I think we all agree that there is a need to help others, but sometimes those efforts can get out of hand. Again, that's why we vote and stay involved in what is happening in society. [/QUOTE]
