Government should not safeguard morality - that should be left up to the citizenry.
And when the citizenry won't do it, the government will.
It's the citizenry who open the door to tyranny. It's the citizenry who, in fact, DEMAND tyranny when things get bad enough.
(And some FReepers encourage things to get that bad by promoting the legalization of dope. Sheesh.)

Yes, but it shouldn't. If society is going to collapse, let it.
