A lot of social spending encourages behaviors that are detrimental to society. There is not enough emphasis on personal responsibility.
Has anyone ever mentioned that some social spending takes the form of rehabilitating substance abusers and people who suffer lifelong psychological damage for having procured one or more abortions?
Insurance companies that pay for therapy and drug rehabilitation causes a rise in employers' and individual payer premiums so we the people pay one way or the other.
I've met women in therapy who have chronic conditions that go on disability, the root cause being an abortion they can't undo. What percentage overall that constitutes I don't have any numbers for.
That's a crock about imposing your morality on others. We legislate that murder is almost always wrong. That is imposing a value judgement on society and the the good of society and protection of individuals thereof. In the case of abortion, we get around that by spin and messing with the original intent of the constitution.
Even atheistic communist nations try to curtail negative social behavior such as drug addiction and prostitution.
This is going to shock some people, but I don't know if I believe in democracy and unlimited freedom any more. I think as society deteriorates, we can no longer depend on people to make the choices that will keep us free.
I was told that 30% of people are on some kind of anti-depressants or medications for psychological reasons. That is going to require a lot of social spending, and we need to find out why. This should simply not be in a country where never before in history have people had it so good in terms of having nice things, entertainments, leisure time, wonderful food, and so much freedom.
Something has gone terribly wrong. Thank heaven we still have righteous people in the country who are not making such bad choices concerning their lives. They are the ones carrying the burden for people who care for nothing but to cause trouble and destroy their own and others' lives in a myriad of ways.

This is so sad. Abortion is the root cause for all their ills.............
I guess I should have said: Having an abortion is the root cause for all their ills.............
