Edited by CallMeDFS: 4/20/2019 6:42:05 AMI think gov't should be over all reserved and shouldn't intrude on the actual running of a country, but should only provide structure. However, society can't be trusted to run itself. Especially today. You see all over the news how one problem is brought to attention and you switch the channel and seemingly eight more pop up. One day a new monopoly arrises out of nowhere, and then there's a police shooting in a city, and then a string of cop murders arise out of retaliation, and then the global temp has increased by a small fraction of a degree, and you see some one liter in the street. People just either don't care, or care too much, and it's dangerous when people play in those extremes. Not saying we should have more gov't, a lot of problems come from too much, but we just can't trust the society we created these days with leaving them unchecked.
