To interrupt the barb-trading for a moment...

You'd actually have a decent point to make there if you weren't so intent on being offensive about it. We really ought to take a second and third look at the degree to which we want to participate in any collectivist, government-run activity, particularly where our children are involved.

Barb-trading aside, this was offensive way before I chimed in. What is totally offensive is people using their children as pawns and cannon fodder for political leverage. Same goes for the ones using the children of others for the same purposes. If they have that little regard and respect for their kids and the kids of others, don’t go giving me sideways looks for not wanting to be compelled to fund their playtime. Also bear in mind the gun in the room. That makes good, middle class folk uncomfortable to acknowledge. Every law, every tax no matter how minor is enforced and collected at the business end of a gun and government is allowed to kill you if you sufficiently resist enforcement of any of those.
