[QUOTE=Reality Land;307555]Thank you, I try. So our government was asleep at the helm again? What else is new? That is what we call a "given" and does not need to be put in to be understood. In fact, for your edification, government is not known to be proactive. They are reactive only when something goes wrong. And many times the reason things go wrong is because of government action in the first place.
Now go forth and do good things.[/QUOTE]


What is a "given" is that government will make mistakes and that there will always be some government fuck-up that someone can point a finger at. The problem with you is that you base your entire philosophy on this given. As a result......you will always believe yourself to be a forward-thinking guy if you run around predicting that "government" will screw up. Have fun with that.
