If you cannot help pay for your child's college and rent then you have made some poor planning choices and failed to plan at all. As a tax payer I do not owe you anything. Every American is born with the same choice to make something of themselves other than the disabled which is okay I do not mind helping them and I do donate often to charities. However I will not support Universal Health Care it is a "hand out." Plus 1 Trillion Dollars think about the debt your children and grandchildren will have to live with. "Get Real Lady"
