What the government sees as being in its own interests may not be the same thing as what is in the best interests of people of this country, beardedbruce. And that is what scares me. Because I see the government regularly exhibiting behavior that demonsrates to me that what they really care about is accumulating and holding on to power, at the expense of the citizens of this country, and with no regard for what is best for our country as a democracy, rather than as a seat of empire.
