Good point!

Karen, we can also include Sergey Brin and Larry Page of Google in that list. How much does a 30 something year old *need* anyway. Let them keep a billion and turn over 40 billion to these programs.

The reality is, and we know it, these people do far more beneficial things with their money to our society than the government would do. So turning over more to the federal government is a waste. We should look at outsourcing more and more of our government services.

Imagine how much waste could be minimized if we outsourced and obtained an information system for the public schools, where every classroom was connected to an online learning system. Waste is rampant. Imagine how much we could save if Social Security were managed by a mutual fund company? How about Motor Vehicle Administrations around the country? On and On....

Change should mean getting back to the basics of outsourcing government services. We only scratched the surface a few years ago.
