I have a good buddy who was an army ranger. He told me once, "I hate the government." I was like, "Didn't you work for the government? And aren't they paying for your medical degree?" (I didn't get into anything any how he was raised by a single mother on WIC, because that's just mean.) He told me that he joined the army to protect the Constitution no the government. At that point I just nodded and changed the subject.
