I do know a mob can be assembled at the drop of hat ... Yeah, in todays world they're called democrats.
Even an Honorable Society needs occassional enforcement of it's established principles. I would view this governance as a form of Anarchy. Blackbird.
Probably, and I certainly don't have the answer to that problem either. Actually, I have a lot more questions than I have answers, but we were warned that our government would only work for a 'moral' people and that certainly doesn't describe US any more, does it?

but we were warned that our government would only work for a 'moral' people and that certainly doesn't describe US any more, does it? While most individuals seem to still have some morality, it's being beat back by those with power. We are rotting from the head down. There is nothing wrong with our Republic that can't be fixed. A lot is said about how our forefathers couldn't have known this or that would happen, blah blah....But I think they were true visionaries, they knew and wrote of the sort of entanglements we the people had to watch for in order to preserve this union, but they also state pretty clearly, it's up the the people. I think it's obvious the peolple have been way too lazy for too many decades. Blackbird.
