I once thought that government should pay for programs that benefit people. But then I saw that people began complaining that their taxes were too high, so governments started capping taxes [like property taxes in Indiana, for example]. Then when income didn't keep up with expenses, they started borrowing money. And now people are complaining about the monstrous amounts of government debt.
But nobody wants THEIR programs cut...nor do they want to pay their own way. Conservative thinking says that people should only pay their own way, and nobody eles's, when it comes to government--that charity should be up to the individual, and administered by churches and other similar orgaizations. So by this line of thinking, Meals on Wheels should be taken on by charities and churches, not government...or else the elderly beneficiaries should pay their own way. And if neither of those options happen, then maybe it's time to shut down the program.
I was just extending this thinking to 4-H, as any true conservative would.
