Give me government. The good kind.

I want a decent life. Without having to be rich/wealthy. I suspect that many, many people share my desire. They’ll settle for the basics. And that’s one reason they like government. Especially the federal government. Because guaranteeing the basics for everyone is supposed to be the government mission. To provide ordinary, less-than-rich citizens, with health care and education and social security. Of course, Republicans would leave pursuit of the basics up to the individual rather than the government. But hey, I’d rather not have to make quick and big bucks. Better to work for the common good of society. Through good government. –Jim Broede
