Thing is, I've never, and will never, enjoy people sticking words in my mouth.

Are you trolling? I'd hope so. Where in my comment was I sticking words in your mouth? I addressed your question by phrasing your question differently to help you and others see what "government" truly is. I wasn't purposefully changing words around in your quote to make it look like you actually said something you didn't, man.

Sure, but it's much like stockholm syndrome. Just because a captor provides shelter, doesn't justify the situation..

If some people can't be taught critical thinking (which is true, the mentally challenged), does that negate the effort to teach others critical thinking? The problem is, with religion and public education, critical thinking is near non-existent. It's only been 11 years since I graduated so I can remember the curriculum pretty well. ;)
And yeah, arguing on internet forums.. I've done my share of it, not so much any more (I rarely post here), but every now and then I like to shoot the shit. ;) Honestly, it's more for my own benefit than anything else. I've learned a lot about being outspoken with my ideas, being corrected, forming ideas, etc..
