The federal liberals only care about their dependents and do whatever they need to do to make them 'feel good' about what they do. The federal liberals only do this to win over their votes.
It is not their place to protect people from themselves. The only protection they are to offer is from outside forces, ie: other countries.
I do not want to be protected by the government as it's only an illusion because they can't possibly do that. Only I can do what I need to protect myself and family and even then there is no guarantee that nothing will ever happen.
So to say the government is there to protect everyone is a crock. And if you believe they can, naivety runs rampid among you all.
