Sorry, you caught me in the middle of something, so I don't have very long to talk, but the government's role is pretty simple. You really got to be specific about which level of government. Local government's role is different than state or federal and vice versa. I'm assuming we're talking about federal government here and not state or local, but you can apply it to any of them. The role of government is to expressly enforce the Constitution. That's really it. I mean, if you read the Constitution, in fact, the original Constitution before the Bill of Rights is basically just a blueprint of how the government is supposed to work and what it's supposed to do. And then you have the Bill of Rights and the additional amendments, which add on additional rights that are codified into the Constitution. That's how you get your freedom of speech in the United States or your freedom of weapons, you know, your Second Amendment or your Fourteenth Amendment. You go forth with what you will. That's their job. It's not to provide charity. It's not to provide social services. It's not to provide a lot of things. However, through the years, lawmakers have been able to carve out loopholes and things here and there to establish those bureaucracies, those entitlements, or those social services to the extent to where, yes, they are legal to do. However, they don't really fall in line with the original Constitution or the Bill of Rights. Anyhow, so yeah, you got me in the middle of something, so I'm going to go ahead and let you have it back. KJ5ILQ.
