Goverment is the real problem by advancing the entitlement programs and then leveraging the class warfare arguement to stay in power. Many of you in this forum appear to be in school or have just graduated, so let me ask you this question.

On the first day of Math class, the teacher tells everyone that NO one will make an A or B in this class, NO one will make an F or D in this class, but rather that everyone is going to make a C in the class to so it will be "fair" to everyone.

The students that make A's & B's, will have a portion of thier grades taken away so that the F and D students can have thier grades moved up to C's.

After the first week, how many students in the class will be doing homework?

This may be over-simplified, but the reality is that America was not built on a socialist mentality, and so this "entitlement" attitude is ruining our country, and the Goverment is feeding on this sense of "entitlement" from the F and D students in order to get them to vote in mass, whereby the government stays in power and those people end up being slaves to the government, while the A & B students will eventually move to a different school (country/move thier money offshore) and finally this wonderful "fair" school will collapse because the model does not work.

I do not pretend to have all the answers, but entitlement reform and restoring personal accountability are the first steps to put the country back on the right path.

Just my 2 cents.
