That is a stupid statement. Ronald Reagan talked about how horrible the government is and you right-wingers followed him right over a cliff.

I can't even figure out what you're thinking? Do you think a society can run with a government? How many cities and states run without governments or planning departments? You will not find one major city in this country that doesn't have a government and planning department.

The government is you! How come you don't understand that? That is what democracy is about for Christ's sake-lol!

Either the people control the government through the democratic process and decide how they want their society to function, or you leave it up to corporations to do it. That is called fascism-lol. Sound good to you?

Those are the choices. Do you want corporations to be making decisions about building codes, national parks, schools, police and fire departments, clean water and clean air and food safety and how safe your drinking water is and running emergency medical services system, etc.?

Of course not. So I don't even know what the hell you're thinking when you make statements like that dissing the government?

Do you agree with Feynman? Or you think he is a right wing idiot?
