This is What You Get

Ding Zilin, mother of 17-year-old pro-democracy demonstrator Jiang Jielian who was killed during the 1989 army crackdown on Tiananmen protesters, weeps as she talks about the event in her Beijing flat during an interview on April 7, 2009. Twenty years on, Ding's pain is still as raw as it was when her son was shot through the heart in the army crackdown on Tiananmen Square protesters in China, an event that she says broke her.

When you ask the government for health care, this is what you ultimately get with it.

Multiply the unimaginable anguish of this woman by millions and you have just a small example of what the institution of government has already provided.

Without government there simply would not be wars. There would not be the need for revolutions.

Just remember what you are supporting when you look to government to solve a problem.
