Gives a shite about you?
Independent here. I truly don't need the government for shite. They don't need me. I find it laughable that people really think that the government gives one flying frick about us. It's cyclical And we all fall for the same shite.

premise flawed... you should care about your govt because you are the boss. govt cant care for you by virtue of its structure and actual purpose..

if you think govt should care about you then go find God, Momma or a bigger lie to believe in

I don't follow what you are saying. What does "fall for the same shite" mean?

Regardless of political affiliation I think people have a belief system of what government is supposed to uphold or provide.

It has nothing to do with what that elecfed individual actually thinks about you personally as long as they uphold or enhance your belief system of what you want your country to be.

I know they don't. My only argument is that we are the government and 500 elected officials can't tell us what to do if we decide to control our government. I voted for Trump because he knows the government is full of shite and I think he will get shite done. Our power is in taxes. If the people that work decided to not file taxes they would have no choice but to do what we tell them to do but the people are pussies

Could you give us some examples? Which "people" told you "The Government really cares about me"?

Hillary voters and Obama-bots seem to be the kind most likely to fall into this trap. The political opposites of the Hill and O crowd want Govt to leave the private sector along and to leave We the People alone and STOP stealing our money to buy votes.
