I'm not going to agree with your premise only because I know that there's a lot of progress that civilization has achieved because of well thought out forms of government. The founding principles of this government will, and always be strong.
Is this government with such strong principles the same government that
1. praticed slavery for 400 yrs
2. didn't allow women the vote for 500 yrs
3. had workers working 12hr days 7 days a week
4. praticed genocide against natives
5. dropped a atomic bomb on Japan
6. invaded a sovereign country looking for wmds
We could be here all year talking about how this country has a different set of principals for each class of citizens. What makes this all work is peoples belief that one day the rules will be the same for everyone. May God bless America and Bless their gullible little hearts too.
I posted that vid too
