I'm reminded of the famous quote by Ronald Reagan, "One of the most terrifying phrases in the English language is, 'I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.'"

The only thing governments ever offer as a solution is more control and less freedom, and that's rarely a good thing. Just look what happened to this site. I'm honestly surprised that comments to articles are still allowed.
