Did you not send your kids to a public school with government lunches? The government subsidize like 1/3 of your children’s meals for most of their lives.

And yet you used government roads to drive to the grocery store. If you were truly self reliant you would've cut your own path through the woods.

I'm grateful that you didn't have to go through greater hardship. In a community there are times we have to rely on each other and government can be a medium for that. I hope for a future where we can do more for those in need, collectively. When we lift them, we lift everyone.
