Why is the government something not to be trusted, something to be suspicious of, and yet civil disobedience in protest of said government's rules is frowned upon?
Why are you happy to tax middle America, and send poor Americans to their deaths, fighting a war based on nothing but lies and the desperate fantasy of American exceptionalism, and yet taxing middle America to help your own poor is something to be reviled?
Why is the "community", composed of individuals, something that always wants to restrict individual freedom, yet the unfettered "market", composed of individuals, is the only way to have individual freedom?
Why do you profess concern for the poor, when in fact you are recklessly indifferent to what your policies do to the poor?
Why do you feel that the state should restrict individual freedoms of real people, but let corporations, artificially-constructed 'persons', do whatever they want?
