This would be implied by misunderstanding the sign, of course; and a genuinely confused person might say something like it. But not quite that. That statement suggests that the caller knows better.

Why should that be the government's responsibility? <br /><br />Of course, she unwittingly makes the libertarian case for them -- testifying the government can't do anything right. <br /><br />Maybe it's a double bluff.
