When it comes to surveillance of civilians and detention without
habeas corpus, sure -- the government can be trusted to root out the terrorists and keep decent people free.
When it comes to sending military forces into other countries, of course -- the government can be trusted to replace corrupt dictatorships with Western style liberal democracy.
When it comes to providing health care to all citizens -- of course not. That is an unwarranted intrusion into peoples' lives and the first step toward a Stalinist gulag.
