I do not mind paying taxes, though, and I like a nice big government. I'm quite happy with what the government does. My satisfaction level is high- and they aren't even sending me checks or anything.

Well I was about to go to bed when I ran into this.

Do you work and pay taxes to the government? And you like a big government, why? Are you like, keeping the barbarians at bay or something?

Please explain how it is that you are not receiving much of anything from the government, but somehow you're happy about paying the government your taxes (whatever they may be) for that service. You are the lone I something something, dont know what you are in my book.
