I disagree that we “need” more laws and a bigger government.

I am curious, intellectually, whether the laws and bigger government are results of or contributors to the amorality we see in this nation today.

Same here despite my poorly worded statement. What we "need" is a return to a moral framework where people generally do the right thing so laws aren't required.
