Why do we act like Government is some autonomous agency that happens along societies, woos them and then oppresses them, all while unwitting citizens are hard at work?
We are the government.
Blaming "government" is like blaming your house's drywall because the family inside can't get along. We create the policies and visions; we elect the workers; we are in charge of the maintenance of the way of life we choose; and we are accountable as the Chairmen/women of the Board of the US to ensure the people we choose and the paths we forge are sound and lead us to our goals.
