Your Dad stole that line from long ago - afaik it was "The American people get the gov't that they deserve".. various attributions from quoteland.com
\... over the years i've seen numerous attributions, including: - alexis de tocqueville - mark twain (samuel clemens) - machiavelli - adlai stevenson - burke as well as a variant that adds "...and deserve the government they get." (hunter s thompson)
I like Hunter's codicil!
