How can you expect 330,000,000 people, all living in different regions, with different economies, ethnic cultures, and all the diverse needs we have to be properly helped by giant sweeping federal programs? The country is way too complex. We have to find different ways!

Earth can't sustain 8B greedy entitled wasteful bastards. Expect LESS, much, much LESS than you have now.

Or... We could just let me keep it in the first place. You don't deserve MY money. I give it to you because the government threatens me with jail if I don't.
