All governments are inherently bad...because the temptation to abuse power & money are too great. Most bureaucracies live & thrive on how they can expand their influence & power. I didn't say a government isn't necessary. I'm not an anarchist. I believe ours is the best that was ever designed...but we have left the arena of a "limited" form to an all-encompassing "smothering" one.

I can guarantee that trillions more of federal tax money has been swallowed up in fraud, over-charging on goods & services, misappropriation, pork projects, and just downright theft then all the money combined in our current stock swindles, insider trades, non-expensed stock options, and cooked books debacle.
