excuse me?

Putting aside your 'humility', i find this persistent accusation to be disturbing.  I for one have never found a government I trust.  Maybe some people in some governments who I have met and worked with, but a government per se? Not likely.

But beyond that, this diremption you constantly insist upon in the fabric of civil society does help at all.  For myself it make disucssion of any points impossible, knowing they will just be discounted becasue I am a government lover.

I, not at all humbly, suggest you leave the accusantions out of any discussion you wish people to take seriously.
