I'm receiving services in return for the incredible amount of money, in taxes, I pay into the system.

In reality, the government is dependent on me.

Our goal should be to encourage more people to be like me (pay more into the system than I will ever use) so people that truly need it can use it.

Welfare and an abundance of social programs encourages just the opposite: live on welfare and never make enough to give back into the system.
