The 2010 Sir John M. Templeton Fellowships Essay Contest

The Sir John M. Templeton Fellowships Essay Contest for junior faculty and students in higher education is held every year. The submission deadline is May 3, 2010. Winners will be announced in October, 2010. Winners of the 2009 contest have been announced. The 2010 Templeton Fellowships will be awarded for the best essay on the topic:

“Everyone wants to live at the expense of the state. They forget the state wants to live at the expense of everyone.”
Frederic Bastiat (1801–1850)


Assuming Bastiat is correct, what ideas or reforms could be developed that would make people better aware that government wants to live at their expense?
