    What is the best thing that you current government has done?

    I often read rants about how bad the government is doing.  But I believe that there is at least 1 good thing that the government hs done.  So lets be objective and see what good the government has done to date.

    My government hasn't done anything good lately, and to make matters worse our PM is embarrassing us around the world. We're worth more than that. We're a better country than that.

    I don't think the government has done anything good recently, as if you read the news and from a personal perspective life has not improved or financial situation has not gotten any better since the last government so - my observation is nothing other than instigate illegal wars and allow the financial chaos the world finds itself in currently.

    Gloom and doom - for me the best thing the government can do is to reduce my tax burden and allow me to take home more of my hard earned cash.

    nothing, neither state or feds. nothing . all the do is come up with new ways of fee or tax or debt the people of this country. ANY MONEY PAID TO A GOVERNMENT IS A TAX. don't care how the get it. the federal government has team up with wall street and major corporation to drain every dollars out of the U S people just to live. but who fault is it. the people for putting these gangster politician in office  who mostly are LAWYERS. WHAT LAWYER YOU KNOW WORK FOR A VOTE.

    Putting fluoride in the water supply, a known neurotoxin.  Putting mercury in vaccines.  Allowing toxic chemicals in all processed foods so they can invest in pharmaceuticals and make money off cancer and people dying.  Starting unnecessary wars as false flags to allow them to enact Orwellian laws that go against the Constitution. 

    Good stuff?  Can't think of much.  Sorry.

    In my opinion, the best thing that the U.S. government has ever done is build a very powerful and formidable military force.

    Go Army! Go Air Force! Go Navy! Go Marine Corps! Go Coast Guard!

    Well for Singapore it has to be the pay cut. Made big news all over the globe because... well.. they are still the highest paid ministers as compared to anywhere else. At least they are somewhat keeping in check and 'listening' to the feedback from the citizens.
