Well then, maybe you can write a faithful response to my first request, which was:

Please post examples of how every government in the history of the world has exploited their people.

Unless you know, factually, that there has NEVER existed a government which has refrained from exploiting its people, then you can't really make such a statement. And to know, factually, that there has NEVER been such a government, one needs to research all governments that have ever existed and find irrefutable proof of their exploitation of their people.

I welcome the post with the evidence.
