Those statements right there, show that absolutely opposing world views that we have. You think that Governments are good things, meant to help. I believe that governments grow first out of the powerful dominating the weak through use of force, (Kings), and then morph in various ways, but always are being run by people that seek power, and have the now legal means to use force in order to make people comply. If their power is not limited initially, and then kept in check constantly, they will grow forever into you are back in King/Dictator mode again. ANY system that seeks to grow government power is, in my view, anti freedom.
