.....You are going to be disappointed.

If you count on the government to provide you with prescription drugs,

.....You are going to be disappointed.

If you count on the government to keep it's mitts off your inheritence,

.....You are going to be disappointed.

If you count on the government to keep the borders secure,

.....You are going to be disappointed.

Go read the rest.
