The Nature of Government (Master and Servant)

So it’s been awhile since I made a post, and this one isn’t going to be too long, but it IS going to be political.
I ask you for a moment of reflection, to think about your relationship to the state. We are taught in school that the government is us, and our leaders act in accordance with our wishes, or at least for our benefit. Think about that premise and apply it to the last few years. Congress was bombarded with letters, phone calls, and protests against the bank bailouts, the auto bailouts, and Obamacare. They all passed anyway. If WE are the government, how can that happen? Well it’s simple: you were lied to. We are not the government and there is a clear divide between the rulers and the ruled.
Think about the chill you get up your spine when a cop car follows you on the street. Think about the hassle of jury duty. Think about the hours and/or expense in filing income taxes. Think of your paycheck! How much does the government take (steal) from you every pay period? They use it to fund the warfare and welfare state. Could YOU not put YOUR money to better use?
This is your relationship to the state. They are the master, you are its servant.
