Anyone who trusts them is a fool. The government has proven time and time again since Reagan that it's function is to fuck over it's citizens. To wage un-necessary wars, to shift the burden to the poor and middle class, to increase the wealth of the wealthy by stealing it from the workers. To deregulate industry and allow them to run rampant, polluting our water, our air, and our ground, stealing peoples homes and pensions.

You have been burned time and time again, over and over for the last 35 years..

Fool me once shame on you.. fool me twice.. Won't get fooled again...

Sucker.
