The number one job of our Government is to protect us, the citizens. That is why any government was formed to begin with. All of the other functions that they have come up with stem from their number one duty of protecting us. We pay our taxes to the Government so that they can protect us.

Now how is our Government doing? How much are they charging us? How much is going towards our safety and how much is being spent just on politicians?

Does anyone feel safe? Look at police forces across the country. What is going on isn't the fault of the average policemen and women patrolling the streets. It is the fault of the politicians running police departments.

Look at our Armies. Our soldiers are the best in the world but they are controlled by politicians in the Pentagon.

Look at our Southern Border. Our Border Patrol agents are the best but they are handicapped by politicians.

Why are we paying our government trillions of dollars while they fail to do their job of protecting us? We should fire them all and hire men and women who will have our best interest at heart and not their best interest. If a policeman doesn't do his job, he is fired. Why not politicians?
