Social priorities is not socialism. Put Scott in charge of the school system, and each person with an intellectual disability will be mainstreamed with their own personal teacher! If the school needs 483 teachers for 600 students, so be it! It's a social priority! Well, only if they can afford it and are willing to pay for it. I also recognize that it is the taxpayers who are in charge of things, and if The People don't set education as a social priority, they have every right to end up with ignorant children. That's democracy for you! Now howsabout ensuring access to health care for every child in America...BEFORE your "a teacher for everyone" program kicks in? I'm not opposed to providing public health care for poor children. However, if you can pay for it, or can afford private insurance to cover it, you should pay for it. Only if you can demonstrably and verifiably not pay for it should your children get public medical assistance. -- Regards, Scott Weiser "I love the Internet, I no longer have to depend on friends, family and co-workers, I can annoy people WORLDWIDE!"

Social priorities is not socialism. No! But you want to force taxpayers to support social needs! Of course. I'm not an anarchist. "That to secure these liberties, governments are instituted among men" is not a call to socialism, but it is a recognition that people must be governed. And for government to function, the people have to pay for it. Thus, levying taxes is perfectly correct. The question is WHO authorizes the extraction of taxes to support government programs, and HOW they go about doing so. Put Scott in charge of the school system, and each person with an intellectual disability will be mainstreamed with their own personal teacher! If the school needs 483 teachers for 600 students, so be it! It's a social priority! Well, only if they can afford it and are willing to pay for it. Good luck with that! Then they get ignorant, uncontrollable children.
