Does anyone still support the government in Washington, DC?

Yes, the vast majority of Americans. Â*You 1% American haters are

political polls have nothing to do with supporting your Government.
You may disagree with the President. Disprove of how he's doing his
job. But if you're an American, you realize that are the Government
and it is your duty as an American Citizen to support your
Government. Â*Maybe a civics class would help you clear it up.


No the civics lesson I learned was how government was supposed to be
accountable to We The People.
If "we the people'' must pay for a "money pit'' we obviously don't
want, does that not make us accountable to government?

despite the fact that the U.S. spends the largest amount of money per
pupil in the world, standardized international achievement tests
reveal that U.S. public schools achieve mediocre scores.. For
example,
according to the 2000 Program for International Student Assessment
(PISA) for 15-
year-old students, the U.S. ranked 15th in reading, 18th in
mathematics, and 14th in science literacy among 27 OECD countries
(U.S. DOE, 2001).

In crafting the Bill of Rights, the framers were careful to
acknowledge implicitly and explicitly two key truths:

The first is that government does not grant rights it acknowledges
them. They exist independently of government. They're part of who and
what we are. And, as Jefferson noted in the Declaration of
Independence, the only legitimate function of government is to secure
them.

The second is that government is a servant to whom we delegate powers,
not a master who dispenses privileges. The Constitution carefully
enumerates the powers we, the people, delegate to our government and
it specifically denies that government any powers not so delegated.
Our rights lie beyond the pale of that delegation. They are
sacrosanct. Any government which infringes upon them is engaged in an
intolerable usurpation.

A "right" as envisioned by the Founders meant that the government
was notÂ*permitted to interfere with your pursuit of them, i.e.,
your pursuit ofÂ*happiness was to be unhindered by government.Â*

The "right" of free speech means that government cannot interfere
with yourÂ*free speech. The "right" of gun ownership means that the
government cannot infringe yourÂ*gun ownership. What does "right"
to health care mean? It means that the government cannotÂ*stand in
the way of your pursuit of health care, or impede your
obtainingÂ*health care. The "right" to an attorney means that the
government cannot prevent you obtaining an attorney to represent
you.

Of course, "right" has incorrectly come to mean that someone must
supply youÂ*with something. If your "right" to housing means that
some slave mustÂ*supply you with housing, and your "right" to health
care means that someÂ*slave must supply you with health care, and your
"right" to an attorneyÂ*means that some slave must supply you with an
attorney, does your "right" toÂ*free speech mean that some slave must
supply you with a loudspeaker, or TVÂ*air time? Does your "right" to
own guns mean that some slave must supplyÂ*you with guns?

Dollars in the common treasury are like fish in the common sea -
anyone who can will harvest to extinction. That is why socialism is
fundamentally corrupting and can not work. The Fed is making a lot of
paper fish. This is an illusion of wealth. The real fish are gone.

Governing has become a way to get privileges for some at the expense
of others.
