Your replies indicate you truly believe in the nanny state.

No I don't. I believe in self-sufficiency which is becoming less and less possible in our complex society.

I do believe in the absence of a utopia which is unattainable, we are going to have to compromise, and my ideal compromise would be the fewer nannies the better.

We already have a socialistic society, and I would like to find some practical solutions to prevent total socialism becoming our way of life.

No you don't. All your posts propose an increase of socialism. You believe in redistribution of wealth. If I pay more for my health care, should I receive the same health care as those that pay nothing? If I make enough to buy a bigger house, should I forfeit that to live in public housing? The utopia you wish for is not possible in our society, only in a totalitarian one and I am not willing to submit to that.

ROFLMPJO...........all you have advocated is more of a nanny state.....

I am at a total loss for words at this point.
