Agree. The larger & more intrusive the government becomes it begins to take up space that church groups, fraternal orgs, etc traditionally filled.

I've heard people say that they're already paying for the gov't welfare benefits (food stamps, Section 8, etc etc etc) so they don't feel it is as necessary to contribute to charities. I understand the argument. Despite that the US is still the most philanthropic country. I can't imagine how much more money would pour into the *right* kind of charities and organizations if not for the boondoggle programs being funded through confiscatory taxes.

Woods is an excellent & engaging author, free market advocate, and he has a podcast too. I'm a big fan of his.

Where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy: that every State has a natural right [...] to nullify of their own authority - Thomas Jefferson
