Look I want to enjoy my time on this planet as much as possible. My goal is to find a balance between extending that time as long as possible and enjoying my self as much as possible during that time... Obviously you can't max out both, there's a balance.

Why should I being penalized for enjoying my life?

And that doesn't reduce any costs at all, that just moves money around and taxes people for enjoying something that isn't REALLY good for you...
EDIT: Actually, it INCREASES costs because you've got to pay for a whole team of bureaucrats to manage, collect, and redistribute the funds.
