It's an amazing racket, the art of making criminals out of ordinary citizens, a racket the US government has got down pat. I have to really hand it to them. When the country and the world no longer requires their existence, they keep coming up with faux reasons for continuing to exist, faux reasons for arresting, torturing, and murdering innocent people, faux reasons to continue to get funding and hurt more innocent people.
You'd almost think that this country no longer has problems (at least none it wants to solve so poverty, justice, racism, education, healthcare, etc. are out), that government's new role is to create problems simply so it can solve them all while making money in the process and justifying its unconstitutional existence. Then you'd be right.
