GOP versus the Government

Government IS NOT THE PROBLEM-----EVERYTHING is Government!!! 

The GOP Shutdown, “”Govt is the problem”” and the Declaration of Independence and Constitution

We in America have a government OF BY AND FOR the people to protect our rights and protect our liberty---

That is what the Declaration of Independence and Constitution set up---an accountable government that follows the will of the people (majority rules), a Congress of Representatives and Senators by state to ensure equal representation in Congress, with a Bill of Rights of individual liberty that Government ENFORCES and lives by---

We have the First Amendment rights to freedom of speech, press, assembly and petition the government in order to make sure Congress listens to the people they represent

Why we have government

The Declaration of Independence

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

The Constitution

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

The Constitution sets up a Congress of a House and Senate, Role of President and the Courts, sets guidelines for laws and prohibitions----there aren’t many actual laws in the Constitution, but mostly a guideline for Congress who is the Legislative branch that will be writing laws (you can do this but not this when writing laws, etc)

GOP on Govt “”being the problem, hindering the economy,”” BLAH BLAH BLAH

Our Government as set up by the Constitution

PRINTS MONEY and loans it out to banks

establishes Patents to protect inventions and protect the profits of inventors

created roads and post offices for trade and mail, regulate banks

gives licenses to businesses, entrepreneurs, inventors and workers,

regulates labor and safety laws.

THE PRIVATE SECTOR GOES THROUGH THE GOVERNMENT!!!

Without Government services THERE IS NO PRIVATE SECTOR!!!!
