Nowadays, when I hear “government” (Federal Government, in particular), I actually translate that in my head to “liar” and “threat to my freedom.”

“livestock” ordinarily means some kind of purpose or use.

Minorities and city dwellers are natural socialists. They are always looking for all kinds of services to be provided for them. Democrats know this.

I live in rural America. I provide my own 1/4 mile long driveway , septic and water. The only outside need I have is for electricity.

Thanks; people would get a lot less worked up about this issue if they understood the workings behind it. People willing to be caged (instead of relatively free-range, like working taxpayers) and accepting a low standard of living in return for a life of leisure with all necessities, and plenty of luxuries, provided by “makers”...No decisions to be made, no effort required for anything at all - just graze & grow.

They do have a purpose/use - but only to the public sector workers benefiting from having them as captive customers. Follow the money, and you’ll see why this has persisted for half a century.

Yeah, socialists think they only need to put the right people in charge to make socialism ‘work’.

OTOH, conservatives think we only need to elect the right people to . . .

That’s why I trust neither of them.
