Probably not the best, but what the hell, at least we got the job done to minimally acceptable standards.
Max: "Hey, you done trimming those shrubs?"
Minnie: "I don't know, they look a little uneven yet..."
Max: "Nah, that's good enough for government work, let's go get a beer!"

Literally, a low life that is able bodied, yet lives off government assistance. I.E. Welfare, WIC, Food Stamps etc. etc.
In the film Forrest Gump, Forrest asks Lt. Dan what he's doing now when he sees him for the first time after they arrive home. Lt. Dan, who has lost both legs and is confined to a wheelchair, states, "Living off the government tit."
The phrase is a reference to Lt. Dan's receiving a monthly stipen for the loss of his lower limbs.
In recent years, the term has a negative connotation and is often used to describe healthy welfare recipients that are able to work but choose not to because they are satisfied with their welfare checks for doing nothing.
The people living off the government tit are the largest voter pool for the democratic party.
Living off the government tit is free ride for people who realize government cheese is preferable to gainful employment.

A conservative who backs the enactment of invasive, usually expensive laws which allow for the government to regulate or micromanage the behavior, relationships or identity of private citizens, or to prohibit government recognition of certain of these traits, based upon the need to "preserve" said individual's idealized "natural" or "godly" order for society (or to create social programs - usually of the "feel good" type - pursuant to such ideals of a "Moral Majority").
Usually a conservative who uses a religious case or justification for why the government must pass legislation (or engage in international conflicts, such as the "War on Drugs") in order to play "moral police" with the citizenry or world.
Such conservatives' self-described credentials as "conservative" are often questioned or sometimes rejected by fiscal conservatives and right-libertarians (including the Grover Norquist anti-tax types) because of such programs take up fiscal resources for potentially never-ending or unwinnable wars. Of course, when culture wars are being fought both in the US and abroad by non-government entities (such as churches), the fiscal conservatives and libertarians are often quiet and compliant for as long as *government* money is not being directed to such wars; the richer of the BGSCs (e.g., Pat Robertson) have free license to carry out such wars.
"The social conservative leaders who advocate using government to achieve their aims always push the GOP to embrace big government whenever the GOP takes power. Here's how it works:
1. Republicans gain control based on promises of limited government.
2. We get a few years of somewhat limited government, especially if the president is a Democrat.
3. We then watch the biggest statists in America -- big government social conservatives -- demand that the federal government "do something" about every perceived social ill in America.
4. We then watch the GOP respond to social con threats by becoming 100% statist. Every time the GOP gains ascendancy, it eventually decides it ought to use the power of the federal government to force "conservative" (in quotes because big government is never conservative) goals. It assumes that other conservatives will just toe the line (like the OP suggests).
5. Voters then kick the GOP out of power.
6. We then watch the GOP at least pretend to believe in small government (many in the coalition will simply wish to limit power of Dems, thus forming an accidental coalition).
7. Repeat"

A postmodern take on the work of the great twitterati, Jamie Vardy. It adds a uniquely British twist to a classic intimidation.
Did you hear how Archie got hit in Malia after telling the promoter you'll work for me some day?
Man was talking bare shit, chat blimey, get governered.
Where people go when there's nothing else to do but debate each other's personal lives, talk about mundane shit, and waste every other wednesday pretending they have some sort of sick power over other people, when really, only other members of SCG care about SCG or have to adhere to its rules. frequently its members get drunk or stoned before and during its meetings, and often times its executive board is likewise. most people fall asleep during its meetings.
Erin failed her exam Thursday morning because a student community government, inc. meeting lasted until 2 a.m. the previous night, due to debating whether or not to hold a debate.
