Perhaps we should eliminate government funding altogether, which is basically only social engineering.

That I definitely could support. Not only does the federal intrusion engender a number of moral dilemmas, but it also gives the government a big club to whack over the head of those receiving the funding. The federal government, once it funds something, uses the funding to compel individuals, states, and institutions to act in a manner commensurate with that funding. Social engineering via "nudging" is not congruent with the ideal of liberty.
