Yeah man, like, butterfly effect, you know?
Rather more direct when they're taking my money to do so. This isn't an abstract "ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee" scenario, and the alternative is not personal autarky. OP is proposing a direct transfer, from me to a stranger, to which I am opposed, and therefore one which must be imposed by force. The alternative is not imposing such a transfer. Cut a check yourself if you think it's a good idea. Bullshit about the universal brotherhood of man and unity of the volk does not excuse arbitrary impositions.
