Yes you have, the 'government' are the poeple. This schizo view of government as if it was some stand alone entity that decends from the heavens to enslave mankind is what is bullshit.
Not really. Criticizing the government comes down to one of two things: criticizing a particular member of the government or criticizing the policies of the government or some government body. If I say "the FBI is a corrupt bunch of slimeball fucktowels," I haven't criticized the American public, I've criticized the policies of a body of the government which are not necessarily based on the whims of the people. It's nice to _say_ that the government is the people, but in a lot of cases, the government does take on the role of the enslaver---i.e. the wiretapping policies of the FBI, the overstepping of law enforcement, the Drug War, key escrow, etc. -- Riad Wahby rsw@mit.edu MIT VI-2/A 2002 5105
