Important to delineate: no one's putting small business owners in as secretary of state.

What do you think I'm trying to illustrate with that statement?

The government set up the laws, infrastructure, and social environment that allowed you to think you are self-made.

Shouldn't you start with facts before you worry about whether they are "irrefutable"?

Let's talk about restaurants. What's a profit margin on an "efficient", busy restaurant? What's the margin on an "inefficient" one? What are the main drivers of traffic? What's your typical food wastage percentage, and how much does that affect profitability?

I worked in restaurants for years.

Sorry, but your religion is as empty as any other.

Yes you’re right roughly 35-45% of University costs are payed by the public already. Tuition pays for about 45-50%.
And I see what you’re saying about wealth vs aptitude. I’ve dealt with that and I found plenty of opportunities to be successful at University, plenty. For those who want to get an education there are an abundance of resources to help you, credit our current system with that.

There are so many worthy causes to spend national funds on but that doesn’t mean government should take the money I’ve worked so hard to gain. In the end government is inefficient and bloated. And a major portion of all the time(work) they take from me is wasted. That’s why I see needless spending as unethical.

You would take money from me for something public sentiment(that is ever changing, and a truly awful gauge of morality) may deem as good and charitable, when I could easily give to charities far more effective or spend that money and actually increase value in our community (which is good for society).

There are a lot of good purpose for government, and from what I've seen as a student if you really want to increase government spending there would be better uses.

So you find it unethical that the government takes money from you? But couldn’t that rational be used against any government service? What’s the role that government should government to you? I’m guessing you’re more of a libertarian, right?

I worked at a Utah Brazilian buffet for 3 years and one prominent Italian one for 1. I too can attest to the waste, inefficiency, and overall poor management of the food industry. So I’m interested in how this discussion will play out
