I once thought that government should pay for programs that benefit people. But then I saw that people began complaining that their taxes were too high, so governments started capping taxes [like property taxes in Indiana, for example].

So by this line of thinking, Meals on Wheels should be taken on by charities and churches, not government...or else the elderly beneficiaries should pay their own way. And if neither of those options happen, then maybe it's time to shut down the program.
I was just extending this thinking to 4-H, as any true conservative would.
