Olympia Snowe’s Conservatism — and Ours
-
msoja, you know where all your principled framework falls down? It falls down when the insurance companies monkey with government.
If every corporate lobbyist that perverts and corrupts our political process because they have irresistible amounts of money to withraw from competitive investment and throw at our representatives instead would simply stop it, and let the government simply be a government – then maybe we could start looking at your side of the fence, at the correct and perfect balance of representation versus individualism.
But we don’t have a government ripe for that kind of philosophizing, because private enterprise has evaded the social police power in drastic measure, and made sure we’ll never be able to have a rule of law with any integrity.
It’s not too much government that we have, it’s too little of the right kind.
