Bad Government at any Cost?

While following the comments of MSM and the blogging groups discussing the recent fallout over Canada's Liberal Government scandal, I have come across quite a few intersting comments from your 'average' Canadians.

The ones I find absolutely fascinating is the 'fringe' group of people who still cling to the belief that "this too shall pass". Give the government a chance to show what they can do. We've spent too much money and time on this sponsorship scandal, we need to focus on things that are really important." Sheesh, talk about sheeple, I can't believe my eyes when I read that.

Here is something for everyone to ponder about your government and the general populations of countries.

"When a government is deceitful, dishonest, shady, crooked, illegitimate, ad nauseum, the people in general welcome it for it gives them the freedom to justify their own behaviors and continue on in the same manner as the government. However, if your government is accountable, honest and fair in all their dealing with all persons and other countries and holds to the traditonal values of what made that country initially great before the rot set in, then it causes the people to have to examine their own personal and moral standards and keep in check with what is viewed and known as good."

So, why toss out something that allows any segment of society to do darn well pretty much what they please, inspite of political corruption.

Hey if my government cheats, lies, swindles, lowers the bar for societal standards continually, and if its good for them, then must be ok for me?

When everyone thinks alike, pretty soon no one is thinking at all.


Where do you stand my friends?
