No, because it's asking the impossible and would actually expand the thing you dislike, because it opens the door to allowing an individual to specify exactly where and how much of their tax dollars go and with all the people and possible options and amounts. You'd need to employ half the country into the gov't to manage RR ekonomiks. I know it's tough for a white male American to deal with not feeling so special that the nation should conform to exactly how they want it. Perhaps the downside of the "everyone is awesome!" attitude. We aimed for confidence, but landed deep into self-importance and narcissism.
That was a response that didn't really address my point. Kind of sidesteps it.
My point was, if an individual rightfully complains about being forced to declare their ideology because of some stupid proposed Governor policy, why wouldn't that same individual be sympathetic when another individual doesn't want to be forced to fund something they have no use for, like a State run University ?
You mention the word "impossible" dismissively and use the word incorrectly when attempting to rebut my question / commentary.
It is literally not impossible, it is unlikely, but that isn't because it's not a good idea, it's because most people are like you, they think a thing not done or which hasn't been done or is not likely to occur as being impossible.
It's only unlikely because people are caught in partisan politics and don't realize how foolish they look when they whine about being captive to a government policy out of one side of their mouth, all the while championing ANOTHER government policy that they like which burdens other people in the way they were just whining about being burdened. (read that twice if you have to, it does make sense)
It's very possible for DeSantis to butt out of peoples lives and for people not to be forced to fund something. like a University if they'd prefer not to. You, like most people want one of the things and don't want one of the other things. Two sides to the same coin. You would inflict your idea on people who disagree with you, as they would inflict their ideas on you. The obvious POSSIBLE solution is for both to stop inflicting on the others.
