I think the problem w/ it is it's willingness to use force (i.e., government) to seek its goals

Right on the money! Sounds straight out of Albert Nock's book "Our Enemy, The State", written during FDR's days of destruction. The state corrupts everything it touches, he said, yet each side uses it in an effort to achieve their own goals.

That's why I despise the Democrats & have completely lost respect for the GOP. The end result of their corrupt reign is a dumbed-down populace w/ little respect for the Constitution & a "what's in it for me?" attitude re: public policy.
