Something for Nothing

Re: Taxpayers foot the bill for junior
Bobbie F. Cook had a valid point in Sunday’s News Leader. Why should taxpayers pay for education? The US Constitution does not say anything about the right to a free education. Did you know one of the planks of communism is taxing property for the common good. Did you also know that the founder of modern free education was the president of a socialist group and the founder of the Soviet Unions educational system. So, what is really happening is that America wants to become a socialistic or communistic country. Free healthcare for all is what they want. Everyone's entitled to education the politicians proclaim. Do not forget about food, we can't let those who won't work go hungry. America is being destroyed by those who think everyone is entitled. So, yes Mrs. Cook they are spoiled and so is America. We will be the next Rome if we do not change this pattern quickly. Republicans and Democrats alike want to keep your vote so they continue to poor taxpayer dollars into these programs. Sunday’s paper was filled with "sad stories" of those who felt they were entitled. I do not get cable TV, my kids are lucky if they have three "outfits", and we live in a less then desirable neighborhood, because we must live within our means. We are not entitled to live like the Jones, we make do with what God blesses us with. The Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves. Charity at gunpoint is not charity it is called taxes.
