I am very interested in these government programs that you think are working so well. Maybe you could enlighten us. Where to start? When you turn on your faucet do you get water 100% of the time? When you drive on a road do the stop lights work, are there speed limit signs posted, are there street signs posted, do people obey the laws because of cops, are they lighted, are there lots of pot holes? If your house catches on fire can you cal 911? How about criminals, and jails; are you protected? Is there a military to defend you? Is your food inspected... do you want to eat uninspected food? Drugs? You want no drug approval? Car safety? The government designed your car... you wouldn't have headlights or seat belts. Toy safety... you expect Walmart to protect your kids? I could go on for hours... airports, air traffic controllers... it goes on forever. You are an ungrateful sod, like so many. You hate the government that has made us the most successful people in the world. Without our great government, the wonderful USA, you would live in a hut and scavenge for a daily meal. Get over yourself and praise your lucky stars.
