I’m sorry but we need government
When I was coming of age, in the time of Watergate and Vietnam, like many others I was so fed up with government, that I came to believe that we needed to fuck up the government so it could stop fucking with us. The United States was bad, that’s what we thought, and there was a lot of justification for that point of view. I voted for Reagan, as a lot of other people did, because he said what we believed. Let’s get on with doing our thing, and keep the government from screwing up. Of course it turns out that isn’t what Reagan was doing, he was just saying that to get our votes. Figures.
