"The purpose of government is to marshal these selfish urges such that we benefit as a whole." I think a lot of people think that's what government should do, but you should really think hard about why that's a bad idea. Who is "we"? Who gets to really decide what is "benefit"? Who gets to decide what is "selfish"? And how can I be that person so that I can screw over gradstudent, and bring about benefits, which, oh by the way, also REALLY benefit my friends and family? Some animals are just.... More equal than others. |

society is not one person.

Which is why the pigs need constant replacement, power must be diffusely held and the executive must be separate from the judiciary.
