In this country, we now have the Government Party.
It is those connected with or living off the Government, its rule-making and enforcement ability, tax policy, and especially, the Government’s printed money. It includes many groups, from federal employees, to welfare recipients to large corporations.
Many smart people in the Civil service understand that for them to exist a healthy private sector is absolutely necessary. A great many of them, especially in the DOD voted against Obama, I can assure you.
They may be a minority of all government employees, but there are large numbers of them who want to get government spending under control, because they know that they are will be in for very hard times when the system crashes. Most also love their country and took an oath to defend and protect the Constitution.
