In reading stories such as this and the numerous stories of lavish public pensions being "underfunded," I have to wonder when taxpayers will tell their governments that they won't be paying for government's excessive promises.

Why should a taxpayer build a private business? Worse, when another business competes against the government-chosen business, the weight of the government is deployed against the competitor.

Why should a taxpayer make lifetime payments to a government employee so the government employee can have a better retirement than the taxpayer?

Government has gone widely afield of its permitted mission, and so much of it does not deserve public support or obedience.
