We can argue about the role of the size of government
But the fact that so many of my fellow Americans couldn't care less about
-pluralism
-the rule of law
-habeas corpus
-the sanctity of the ballot
-freedom of association
-the right to peacefully petition your government
-due process
-freedom of association
et cetera
saddens me.
Those are the things that make this country great.
