It's that simple of a question, but it has political undertones.

I pay for the ticket, I get to choose which cabin I ride in, where I go, and what time the journey starts and ends. If the life choices we make didn't matter, life might not mean as much either. I don't understand those who are just along for the ride, and prefer that others buy the ticket and make critical choices. I have my own set of goals, purpose and dreams. They're not negotiable for the price of a free ride - not to anywhere at all.

You're running into the problem where you're defining things as someone's decision when they're not necessarily things that actually are.

I make better decisions for myself. Too bad I did not listen to that little inner voice guiding me in the right direction many years ago.

I spend my money much more efficiently than paying someone to dip into my pocket.
I do not engage in self-destructive behavior like my government
I'm debt free, unlike my government.

I know me ... intimately.

I don't even make decisions for my kids anymore. A proper legacy to children is to ensure they can make their own intelligent decisions.

That being said... In a restaurant... I'm the most indecisive flake you've ever seen!

I know what's best for me at any given time. But it's not about that with some.

It's about what's best for the collective, as described to us by our leaders and their yes men.
