[QUOTE="C_Hallbert, post: 3071165, member: 42957"] I believe their should be ways of fulfilling useful volunteer service other than the Military that could suffice. However, people should have some skin in the game such as Property, Business Ownership, Wage Earning Taxpayers etc. Also remember Benjamin Franklin, “Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!” We are seeing this warning taking shape with an increasing percentage of those demanding money, services (like free healthcare), property and goods based on the concept that all these things are human rights. Humans have no more right to DEMAND (for the price of a vote) that other humans supply their needs than squirrels have to demand the same from other squirrels. All people do have the right to work. Honest employment should also include disability insurance if people become incapacitated. Also, there is nothing wrong with charity, but money taken by force of government without voluntary consent of those it belongs to, even for a good purpose, isn’t charity: it is extortion.
