+1000I favor a more decentralized government where it is easier for the people to have a voice over one all powerful central government ignoring the will of the people to favor their rich benefactors.
If I don’t like local government I can try to change it or move some place I like better. If I don’t like a huge central government it gets much, much more difficult to have an impact or to avoid it.
I don’t want a government or anyone else telling me how I must live and what I must do.
A free individual owns himself and his output, which he my contribute to whom ever or what ever his choice.
A slave owes his output to his master who may tell him what he may keep. Just where do you think most of us stand today?
"That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
-Eric "George Orwell" Blair
"If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
(Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
