Yuuuuupp.
Has there been any other time in history where we had more Federal oversight ?
Furthermore the welfare system has helped create an entitled populace that if they do not get what they think they deserve, they will go out and take it.
This is a rampant attitude in the deteriorating small town I live in.
Public housing everywhere and crime has increased ten-fold.
My 2nd amendment right is pretty important here.
