I was just wondering, how much of a stake do you have in the "system" or the status quo functioning as it now stands.

My wife is faculty at the University of Kansas, so she is technically a government employee. She could earn more in private industry, but we both like the university cultural environment.

Depends. How do you quantify the value of indirect benefits, such as safety, security and infrastructure...or do only direct benefits (subsidies, etc.) count?

*EDIT* Changed "eic" to "etc.," although EIC would be appropriate as well.
