Hmmm, that would put a lot of government programs out of business. And as you say, maybe they should be. But do we really want to discontinue the following...

• Any form of aid to foreign countries?
• Free Medicare and Medicaid healthcare for those who can't afford to pay the premiums?
• Any of the funding of education or healthcare programs for low income children?
• Eliminate funding to any of the faith-based social programs created in recent years?
• Medicare Part D Rx coverage for any who can't afford to pay the premium?

For sure this list could go on and on. But before I keep mine and you keep yours, maybe the results require just a little forethought.
