If that ever happened (which it has yet to), I would voice my opinion on the matter to my superiors, and follow through with my duties. I'd do everything in my power to make a change, but I'd still remember that I have a job to do. I'm not a mindless killing robot, after all.Originally posted by The Captain
Even if it means fighting for a cause you don't agree with, to ask a hypothetical question?

Too many people don't appreciate what the government does for us. Houses are built, roads, cities. Anytime I'm sick, I can go to the doctors, and pay nothing at all. Police keep me safe. I have waste disposal. I turn on the tap, and there's fresh water. I suppose this doesn't have that much to do with trusting, but so many people (teenagers especially) seem to have this hate-on for the government that I think is completely undeserved. Everyone focuses on their mistakes instead of also looking at everything that's done for us. I may dislike certain policies or politicians, but overall I trust my government.
"All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"
