Um, what are you on about? People make their own decisions in life and they reap or suffer the consequences. No one believes that they need government to tell them what to do, that remark is just silly... You keeop throwing around the word "personal responsibility", so let me ask you something? You ever use a highway to get somewhere? How about cross a river on a bridge? Ever eat a school lunch? How about flown from point A to point B? Did you receive college loans or grants, did you even go to college? Do you use the internet?
