In the beginning, Government provided the infrastructure that permitted the success of American companies. After seven days, government rested.
Until President Obama clearly reinforced the government-Creationist perspective, Americans truly did not understand the greatness of our government and all that it has done for us.
If not for Government (like God, Government should be capitalized), Henry Ford would have never invented the car. Quite obviously, Ford thought, now that Government has created roads, he must put a vehicle on them.
Thank Government!
Just as apparently, God, in his infinite wisdom, must have realized that Government-created trails needed horses. So He created them.

Our founding fathers threw off the oppressive government of England for a new form of government, a government that provided the framework for a people to live in freedom.
Government derives its power only from the people it serves. Obama seems to think that the government came before the people, and not the other way around.
Perhaps Obama needs to stop eating apples!

It is just a short leap from that meme to the increased confiscation of wealth and freedom. If your wealth is a result of our Government's munificence, then the Government has a priority claim on your wealth.
This thinking is extremely dangerous.
Charlie Gasparino rhetorically asked on Fox this morning: where did the money come from to fund government in the first place? It was private enterprise, of course.

In the beginning GOV created the heavens and earth and they were without form and void. And GOV said “Let there be light and I will regulate and tax it. “ And it was so.
Gasparino gets it.
And GOV said, “Let’s make man in our own image” and it was so.
The GOV said who can we tax?
Actually, he almost got it right. Government is the root of all corruption and the root of all perversion.
But, the root of all creation!? Only as it applies to creating corruption and perversion.
I would like to know how Government can “create” all these roads, wind energy, etc.
By saying the business-person did not create their business, Obama is announcing the first step in nationalizing all American business. If you did not invent and build the business, it must have been done by all the people and the government. It can then only be the people's business. They own it. The government is the people. So, the government owns all US business and what it produces. By the communist logic of Obama you are all really employees of the government.
You will love your state wages, and state pensions, and your nationwide employee health care.
Here it comes,sooner or later.
Defeat Obama at the polls or live under communism.
They take the money to do it from your wages in what they call taxes. Taxes were originally only money taken to run the government, but our socialist/progressive/communist overlords now think the taxes built all of this enterprise, and it all belongs to the people. The businessman enterpreneur is just a tool for Obama's state.
Prepare to defend what is yours.
