You expect her to go through her life drugged every day, even though she can't afford it? That doesn't sound like a winning plan to me.
Taking care of your life, is like growing a garden:
*YOU have to prepare the ground, not a bureaucrat from Washington
*YOU have to plant the seeds
*YOU have to water and pull out the weeds, and keep the pests away.
YOU - not a federal bureaucrat, have to take care of your garden, and YOU should have the food it produces - not the gov't.
You probably believe this is an insane idea, but for most people, it's common sense. And it's VERY efficient. Central control from the gov't will

Wow.
Well thanks, but I tend my own garden (omg what a trite analogy) and all this waxing ineloquent has little to do with this reality you pretend to espouse. I know, right? That I have my own good job, and take care of my own life...and that I STILL have the audacity to believe that as a society it shouldn't be "i got mine now you get yours" is mind-boggling, isn't it? However, I know that I am not an exception to the rule.

Funny, I don't recall saying anything of the kind. You grab onto talking points that don't actually exist in the post you are 'responding' to.
I say this with the sense of inner self that makes me realize I am lesser, that I do want to be just like you, that you have the answers...or at least the general idea of what the answers should be...and I and my god are completely envious of your insight.
Oh, and I'm The Great Sarcastic.
I do wonder where my like-minded fellows are when you post such an abberration, such an over the top conglomeration of disrespectful bullshit, in response to my comment?
Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?
