Since the government seems to make decisions that just don't make sense in the reality were living in at the moment, ever I am starting to think that they think like this: Any laws, regulations or funding that would have a significant POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE impact is reserved for as much of th future as possible because whoever has already signed the birth certificate is already in significant debt and owes (to them) anyways. So, most of their legislation is viewed upon those that have yet to be born or at the very considered. We can't perceive things like that because we exist amongst consequences that effect us here and now. They do not get effected by consequences of their actions so they have free reign to plan for their future control, see ahead many many steps and the things we notice today have been in the works well before they've taken effect. So, next time you're observing something the government does, think way ahead in the future and it might clear things up a bit. Remember, the governments first mission is to make sure it always exists and that means control mechanisms must be put in place in every area of life.
