Any group of people with a 'magic money machine' will eventually become unaccountable and spin out of control. Left or right, gay or straight, atheist or religious we are all prone to ego driven pride. We think we know best. And with the magic money machine gleaming out of the corner of our eye, and highly paid officials in glittering uniforms with shiny guns at the ready, we rarely can resist the temptation to bribe and bully. Again this isn't a left or right thing, it's human nature. The only hope for our Republic is to radically limit the Federal Government's ability to intervene on domestic affairs and their ability to print IOUs (aka Money). Want to build your utopia? Fine, do it in your state and bear the consequences, good and bad, of your choices.
The Founding Fathers - living in a much crueler time - knew this. We need to relearn it.
