One of the biggest scams the American Government ever pulled, was claiming that its responsibilities were actually that of the citizens, and that anyone who expects the Government to do anything but wield an iron fist is a “Whiny snowflake looking for a free lunch”

That’s just a symptom of the actual greatest scam: making people think the government should be a “them” instead of an “us.”
Its responsibilities are those of the citizens. That’s why the government exists: to regulate, pay for, and administrate those responsibilities.
That’s why they exist in theory. In practice they serve a social class that’s very much not “us” except for lip service
Those whiny snow flakes would really fuckin appreciate it if you called them by their proper names, billionaires.
