This is more for RobertaX, though I think her thought on anarchy are a bit more nuanced than this video portrays, certainly. If we realized the version in HER head, we'd be okay, and I'd be a booster.
It's interesting that some commenters on the YouTube site accuse the creator of the video of offering an unrealistic view of how government actually operates, in much the same way as the proponents communism have done.
That's true. There will never be a perfect government. The founders, in their wisdom, decided to leave the majority of the adjustments of the system to the Several States. That point is lost on a lot of people--especially those who continually propose new federal legislation because they want something imposed universally.
Many years before the American political machine became interested in segmenting the population in order to buy votes, diversity had a different meaning.
I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.
You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
I am making sure my children see this.
