Government has become Big Business. So for all of the fools on the left that decry the Big and Evil Corporations, they are being replaced by the government. And you can't quit the government.

Spending ourselves into inflation, currency collapse and a permanent lowering of our standard of living. Our descendants will curse us for it.

That's ok, our kids and grandkids will (maybe)... It's fine as long as people get free healthcare, free houses, jobs where they can sit in a bar all day and not get fired... You know the basic necessities of life promised in the constitution!
