Best Answer

A quote from the Federalist Papers. You risk losing your freedom by allowing too much freedom to degenerate into decadence, immorality, disorder, chaos, sort of like the stuff you see on reality TV. With freedom comes moral responsibility. Supposedly. The second part of the question should be obvious and is less interesting. Essentially, it's not enough to be protected from arbitrary use of power. To be free, you have to exercise your political rights.

What does the Liberty may be endangered by the abuses of liberty as well as by the abuses of power mean?

Founding Father James Madison wrote this in Federalist No. 63. Madison, who authored much of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, was referring to some of the licentiousness and lawlessness that he saw in America under the Articles of Confederation. There was civil unrest in many states across the country during this period, with Shays' Rebellion being the most notable example. Madison was troubled that some Americans thought they could respond to federal taxes and other laws with violence. Madison considered Shays' Rebellion to be a "warning" to our young nation. When the Constitution was ratified a few years later it stated that one of the chief purposes of the states' Militia was to "suppress insurrections."
