    “the government shouldn’t be giving people things” is the dumb argument I hear so often.

    Every gallon of gas, pound of beef, gallon of milk, and such have been subsidized by the government. They just ignore/don’t realize it.

      It’s not that I’m opposed to all forms of giving people things. It’s just that I would rather we help give people good things like solar panes, wind turbines, electric vehicles, free or low cost bus fair. Things that will move our country forward instead of backwards.
