I strongly agree with that sentiment. (02)
I strongly disagree with any Americans who say "USA all the way!"
and then denigrate their own government. (03)
As the first and greatest Republican president said, the US has
"a government of the people, by the people, and for the people." (04)
Any American who complains about the government should look
in the mirror to find one of the primary reasons for everything
good and bad about the government. (05)
For better or worse, the government is us. (06)
