North Carolina vs Personal Rights, and To Each According to His Need

I am firmly against the government telling anybody how and when they can marry. As long as the marriage is consensual between both parties, what is wrong with it? If a man wishes to marry a man, a woman a woman, or a man to a woman, what business is it of everybody else? Yet North Carolina's state government has decided to step in and intercede in the personal liberties and freedoms of its citizens. It is absolutely deplorable for it to tell people how and who to love. The citizens of North Carolina are just as contemptible, committing the supreme evil of assuming they have a right of telling other people how to live their lives. This is especially true because the marriages wouldn't affect their every day lives. So by what right can the government or its citizens make this claim?

Simple. "We feel its wrong". They have no basis or moral ground to make this statement from- Not everybody believes in the Christian God. Why should people who don't, or have a different interpretation of the Bible, be held to the majority's moral code? Anybody who presumes to have the right to control the freedoms and liberties of others should reconsider their moral ground- they are no believer in true liberty, only in their false moral code that allows them to believe they're in the right.

Second, we are now seeing the first obvious and blatant stages of what entitlement states lead to. Schools are now competing for funding not by having the brightest students, but by having the worst. New schools and old are trying to find anything at all that their students can be diagnosed with in order that they can file for more funding for students with needs. From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. My brother, for example. So far as I know, schools cannot give a student an IEP or implement it without parent involvement. Walnut Creek Elementary School did both, filing a speech impairment IEP and pulling him from class for speech therapy, citing that he had an IEP at Vandora Springs. This is untrue.

Not only is this a blatant breakage of law, its a desparate plea to show they have more 'need' than the next school. This isn't something confined to just one school- its happening nationwide. And its only the beginning- this has already been happening to Medicaire and other government programs, and the government's been robbing the wealthy and successful for nearly a century now to give to others with need. It'll be a race to the bottom for the most funding. The immorality of stealing from the able and successful aside, can you imagine what this will do to the economic, moral, and political state of the country?
