What do you sacrifice for government authority?

Answer 1

You sacrifice the essence and existence of Democracy which is the Foundation of freedom which enlightens the human spirit. The Government is an elected body run by it's Citizens. If the Authority is diverted away from the people, the masses, the Citizens then you merely sacrifice everything that defines and celebrates humanity; freewill,free thought,free exploration and discovery. Wouldn't it be humiliating if we were the generation that spawned that era? Authority is a gentle term for power. Power must be carefully monitered and ideally divided because if not carefully allocated, human nature is designed to obtain it. What helps us, our desire to evolve makes us powerful. If that power is misallocated it can destroy us. and acheive it could destroy us corrupted by its desire for power. Like a drug, the desire for it grows stronger with each use until its out of control and you would do anything to obtain it. These addictions afflicted to humans are worse that cancer. At least we can evolve to acknowledge it, accept it, and attempt to control it. Of course we are a long way off yet, not even being able to admit it. I don't know why people are so fearful of the cons that go with the pros of humanity. Our animalist, biological need to evolve and improve our existence is greatly appreciated, at least by me. So corruption of power is a side effect, its worth it, luckily we know it so it can be controlled now. If we aren't conned out of the power we hold. Noone tacrazed drivesuccess of acheiving and acquiring human comfortsbreeds corruption.its nature breeds corruption. Human nature really, if you believe and accept that, know that, is difficult to resist Be very careful of the lure to exchange power for a promised security or comfort, it is a false promise because nobody will protect your interests except you, unless of course your interest increases theirs. Our Forefathers fought and died for the power that we are foolishly letting slip away, so sad. Laws of human nature creates hierarchy, hope you have the power to stay at the top. Vote local if you want it or want to keep it. Please.If you held the last cheeseburger in the world would you give it up ,in which our Foretmasses then corruption w
