Civic Duties II - "Ask not what your country can do for you"

I feel strongly about civic duty.  It gets on my nerve when people thinks the government can magically resolve all the social problems, and remedy any unfortunate evens befalling anyone, when the citizens wouldn't even pay their taxes.  Then I would remember a quote, "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." 

After searching the origin, as it turns out, something sound so socialist is from an American president JFK.  No wonder some Americans think the Democrats are socialists.
