The USA government has done some good, like kill thousands upon thousands of Nazi's. There is nothing redeeming about a rapist.
dude that was in the 1940's all the people running the government then have nothing to do with it now of course the government was good back then but this is a pointless argument if we are considering the government since the US was founded....
the government rapes, cheats, steals and murders on a much larger scale and much more often than criminals... so the government.
The government is not fully responsible, but rapists, murderers, thiefs are all products of their environment. I'm sure if these people could get good drugs (specifically psychedelics) legally they wouldn't even consider raping or killing, as they would realize what they are truly here for.
Have you ever heard of project paperclip? We allowed a lot of Nazi scientists to come to America so they could teach our scientists about space rockets which is why we won the space race.
People talk about the government like it's this thing with legs that's moving around and doing shit, the government is people too, and some people in the government are criminals.
People say the government is trying to fuck us all, but what about the roads you drive on, the schools you went to, the police and fire departments we use, libraries, museums, welfare, ect.
I don't care how bad the government is......nothing/nobody is more despicable than a person who can look a baby in the eyes and then rape and kill them.
Right, while the government may metaphorically rape us sometimes, it's not literally going around and raping us.
Murderers and rapists commit far more heinous crimes but once caught are generally put away or executed... the government is responsible for helping concentrate wealth among a narrow elite class- leaving most with barely enough to get by or worse- creating a level of desperation that has many commit crimes who wouldn't otherwise cross the line. It's crimes are still in progress- our tax dollars support them.
The fact that in passing the funding for vital services our legislators bundle in all manner of wasteful spending they essentially try to hold infrastructure maintenance and social programs hostage when pork barrel pet projects are bundled in because some senator wants to throw a bone to a contractor who contributed to his campaign. I agree that the government itself is not an evil entity per se but its character is a reflection of the sleaze that populates it and THAT is so because we as regular folks have abdicated our responsibility to be involved beyond the voting booth... we've allowed our voice to be taken away. Matters have degenerated to the point that true, meaningful reform cannot happen from the voting booth... and so many deem the government as necessary evil because of the roads, bridges, welfare, etc.
I believe the govt could be to blame for....If these drugs that create peaceful ways of thinking were regulated or atleast legalized then iam almost a hundred percent sure evertything would be lessened or brought down a bit..Society is nuts
