Government for the people???

Postby notyou2 on Wed Oct 01, 2014 2:28 pm

Here you provide proof that the government is actually for it's constituents/citizens. All levels of government doing things for the people are applicable and admissible.

Also, you may post instances where the government goes against it's people and institutes laws/statutes, etc. that are contrary to perceived popular opinion.

I'll go first. A nearby city instituted free internet in a large area of the downtown. You can use it on the city buses too. This seems like a good thing, unless they are using it to track their citizens and visitors.

Another nearby city recently revoked the free bus rides for the blind after offering that free service for many years.

- All rural land collectively owned by citizens
- Country is protected by the People's Liberation Army
- Economy is regulated by the People's Bank
- Country is called the People's Republic

No country is more the property of its people than China.
