The taxes are not voluntarily given, but what happens to our money is "none of our business"? I just said it was, and the method and people accountable to you for it are the local welfare organization and its administrators. The people responsible for it are your elected officials.
The local recipients are not within your responsibility nor scope of investigation, and they are not accountable to you. Snooping into other citizens' individual privacy is not your business.
When you have earned your own keep, paid your own tax burden for the benefits you've received, participated in local politics, voted, and stayed within the law, you've done everything you need to do to be able to attend to your own business and keep your nose out of others'. IMHO.
Offering your opinion on FR is, as it is to me, a privilege. Go right ahead. The privilege is free, but the forum is not without cost.

When my mandatory tax dollars, my money, go for abortion, the promotion of 'gay marriage', encouraging idleness and other things that I find repugnant and immoral, it is my business.
When my mandatory tax dollars, my money, go to support a Congress, Courts and an Executive that rams an immoral law, read ObamaCare, that forces nuns and others to go against their Faith, support and pay for abortifacants, it is my business.
Of course these things are our business. Otherwise we would still have the same rules and laws that we had 200 years ago.
And you are correct. This forum is not without cost.
Thank God for Jim and Free Republic that we can exchange these ideas.
