Had you garnered an MBA you too would have been able to achieve wealth based on your education. So yes, I advocate for government because I believe everyone is entitled to the same life that I've achieved. Oops sorry, I didn't mean to tell the peons how to live...
But maybe you come from a middle-class or higher background and had a shot at college and just turned it down. If so, forget all of the above, you deserve to be exactly where you are...

Pete, I'm in a really, really good place. And I've earned it. On my own. Never took a one of your tax dollars to get here.
If you consider mass wealth, and elitism success, you are a failure in my opinion.
See, Pete, I'm doing way better, and am in a better financial position than a lot of folks, but it's not my business to tell them how to live.
It's also not my business to support them for their poor choices in life. And, the simple fact is that some people just suck at life. Yet you sit in your ivory tower, and claim these people are my responsibility. Why? What are YOU doing for them?
OK. I was getting really pissed, so I walked away for a minute..now I'm back, Pete.
Ok, so you think that your taxpayer funded degree puts you above the guy who repairs your car, plumbing, electric, etc. is beneath you because they aren't "educated" per you. What about your mail carriers? What about the guy/gal who maintains the gate into where you live?
Do you look down on everyone who makes their own way without government assistance?
I could go on, and on about this. Do you have food in your store? How did they get there?
I assume you have furniture in your house. How did that get there?
You take a lot of medicine, right? How does that get to your pharmacy?
Pete, you've shown your bigoted, ugly side once again.
