that peril is Bureaucracy

Some might argue that the Founders purposely created a form of government that wouldn't be subject to the whims and mob mentality of a democracy. By doing so, they created a government that has been more or less stable for better than 225 years. How many other countries can really say that?

While I don't think the Founders had an inefficient bureaucracy in mind, the stability part is certainly there.

Just a guess...none? (just kidding!)

Faint comfort if all of the liberties they fought to ensure us are taken away in an endless, mindless paper trail by robotic, bureaucratic drones.
