Oh Geesh, who would pay for this? Would the money just fall out of a tree somewhere? No! They'll take our money to do it. I'd rather set up my OWN $2000 for my own children. I can invest better than the government. I don't like robbery and strongarming for my own "good".
If you feel that way, then you are, in the famous words of the Governator, YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN ;)
