I consider myself a realistic idealist. I believe, in reality, that if all the government funding dried up for everything, people would step in and help in some way for those things that are most important to them.
I suspect those things are education, police, courts, the military, and maybe welfare for those who are truly messed up.
And, if I’m wrong, then whatever it is that doesn’t get private support – be it schools, or scholarships or the military – then they shouldn’t have been funded in the first place.
Thanks, zk. Twice in one day I have had reasonable discussions with people on Piggington. I’m so happy.
