I don't understand how you can survive solely on the government? I guess I am too prideful to want to say that all that I acquired in life is due to someone else giving it to me, instead I would rather earn it with hard work and some blood, sweat, and tears and also leave something behind for the next generation to look forward too. Even if I have to work harder than anyone else to make it happen.

We tried - too much red tape.

A noble outlook on life, and one with which I agree wholeheartedly.
Problem is your opening paragraph says otherwise.......
What does this headline mean to you? Do you believe that it is your duty to ensure that the generations to follow are left a better place than you were? It seems that the closer people get to the end they either veer one way or the other.
Either scrutiny fills their mouth when words come out because of the underlying anger at themselves, of all they did not accomplish. Why should they help someone else get it right, nobody helped them?
Or they may look to wizen the next generation with words of wisdom about mistakes they have made and goals they have accomplished. They look at the next generations as an extension of the works they have done and hope that this generation can improve even further upon this.
It seems to me that many are quick to scrutinize in this hobby as they don't want anyone else to know how they came upon their good fortune for fear that these same people will have it easier and become more accomplished than themselves.
It is in my opinion that we are all on this site to find happiness, right? Because practicing the art of bonsai makes us happy. Shouldn't we be more free of ways for people to achieve this happiness?
When I seen the headline I thought for sure that Obama was involved somehow ...
We have to tax the Bonsai artists for the value their Bonsai will be worth in the future, its unfair that some should enjoy the intergenerational equity available through their parents bonsai while others only grow tomatoes and they get eaten the end of the year.

OK, so take away all the rest of non meaning words and this is what a person is left after reading this. Especially if it is someone that has had some success and has posted nearly everything they have done for the last 30 years, and continues to give on a daily basis.
With that said, this is how I read it.

It sounds to me like you poured your heart out....
I am willing to field questions.......
