Of all the various "political" views regarding this subject, I have found the views found in the American gun culture are most inline with my own. In fact, I have found in the last five or six years that the gun culture most reminds me of the America I grew up with in the seventies and eighties. And the America that my Grandparents and Great Grand Parents established before I was born.

My basic view on "government dependence" is its an abomination. It is abhorrent and many politicians want as many people on the dole as possible. Then they want you to vote for them and they promise you "free stuff," trouble with that is there is no such thing as "free stuff."

so what you end up with is a country where about half the country actually works and pays taxes. The other half does not work and lives off of the other 50% of Americans who do work and pay taxes. I have heard many, many, many Americans who do work and pay taxes exclaim they are absolutely fed up with the other half that are a bunch of bums, who want something for nothing, etc.

Left leaning politicians such as obama want to expand this financial dependence on government and he espoused rhetoric that makes you think you are a victim.

I want the government to fear the people, not the other way around. I want the government to fear me, as a voter and as a citizen and that does not happen when you are financially dependent on the government to survive, off entitlements.
