The idea that government intervention is bad puzzles me every time I encounter it. Government in a democracy should be "the people" and intervention could protect you in so many cases. Assuming you're from the US, from an outside perspective your job 'market' is utterly fucked. Because of cuts to the welfare system (which have been marketed with somewhat racist propaganda, see welfare queens), most people are forced to take highly unregulated, low-paying jobs (yes, plural) while rich people and big companies earn more and more. The government could intervene and make it harder for companies to exploit workers the way they're doing it right now.

The IRS is chronically underfunded. They can't keep the money, it goes to Aunt Sam.

The Puerto Rican flag was designed in the late 18 hundreds but banned by the US. It references the cuban flag.

No, it's just propaganda. While the Nato is problematic in at least some ways, the comparison with nazi germany fails ön many different levels.
