We are not children. If people "need" someone to run their lives, they can hire people for that purpose (financial advisors and nutritionists for example). Don't make that binding on the rest of us who are handling freedom just fine.
To me that statement duplicates, "Keep your government hands off my Medicare"?

Perhaps people should reflect on the myriad of ways our "interfering" government has brought us to the place where we have that "handling freedom just fine" ability to go about our daily business and live our lives as we know it, mistakenly thinking we don't interact with or benefit directly from our government on a daily basis.
