Salut, Alain. Bonne nouvelle année.
Most Americans do not fear our government. A few do, and are viewed by the rest of Americans as paranoid and living in an alternative Tea-party reality. That reality is so bizarre, and the people who advocate it as so bizarre that they do get a lot of publicity and attention. They do have a political impact, especially on the Republican party, where some republican leaders want to rid themselves of the Tea-Party members knowing that association with them will reduce the Republican party to fringe status, and other republican leaders want to embrace the Tea-Party knowing that it may be the last stronghold of the republican party. It is a fascinating trap and I am curious to see how the Republicans (who include some pretty decent and smart people) will work this out. Like people everywhere, most Americans want lower taxes and more government services. They want the government to stop telling them what to do with laws and regulations, but they at the same time want the government to stop others from doing things they disapprove of. As I said, like people everywhere. For myself, I appreciate our government greatly. By and large, it is efficient, economic, responsive, and transparent. Of course, there are many things the government does that I disagree with (especially in foreign affairs), but generally I appreciate and support our government. Generally!
