What is supposed to make our form of government unique isn't its ideal of civil contentment but its ability to realistically deliver a high quality grade of it to every U.S. citizen. The weakness they had in forming this type of government was the necessary legal precedents our founding fathers had to create in order to get it to function beyond just an ideal in a practical way. This is the hideous problem! It isn't just our nation, but every nation has this problem with providing civil purpose over legal tyranny. After the implimentation of necessary legal precedents, the futility of legal tyrannies arise when only lawyers can operate the system. The problem with lawyers tending to legal precedents is their compensity to do what is in their "best interest." Of course, best interest in this case implies that they would invariably do what pays them best. Interpreting the civil purpose of collective contentment in the Declaration of Independence and thus the Constitution as legitimate would pay them very little. In other words, it is in the best interest of lawyers to interpret the legal precedent created by the Constitution rather than to interpret its primary civil purpose regarding our collective contentment.
What destroys the civil purpose of not just our government but every government that exists is the "ignorant rule." This "rule of bickering" establishes a social precendent of "law" when two or more people assemble to empower themselves over another as "incompetent." This rule becomes more "official" in the minds of the masses when the original civil purpose designed into the government becomes more "illegitimate."
An example of what I speak here is how lawyers view the Constitution in legal terms. Through the use of the ignorant rule, they have convinced us over a long period of time that the civil purpose intended in the Declaration of Independence has no legal meaning. In other words, because it has been buried over by volumes and volumes of legal precedent, the civil purpose regarding our collective contentment as Americans is no longer held supreme.
This is why our nation bickers in courts about thousands of legal issues regarding the policing of our borders rather than the government simply doing it because it would make us all collectively content. The legal issues pay better than the civil purpose regarding our collective contentment. As a result of this "legal tyranny," we have lost our souls, the American birthright we inherited from our forefathers. We have become so lost in legal precendent that the civil purpose in our Constitution has little legitimacy.
So, the real enemy is legal tyranny. This tyranny is not flesh and blood but a principality and power. It is an erosion from the good intention (not intentions) of government regarding the civil purpose of "collective contentment for all" to that of a legal chaos of doing whatever is in the beasts "best interest."
To get out from this legal tyranny takes the politics of character building rather than the bickering about our different political characters. As Americans, we need to learn to detest the legal system and its issues. While we need to hire inexperienced law makers and judges to the bench so that we can relearn the civil purpose in our Constitution, we also need to learn to compromise with rather than take our neighbors to court. We also need to fire our lawyers as "necessary evils" to be used only as a last resort. Through the use of this type of "legal disobedience," we free ourselves out from living under a beast of legal tyranny. Although we still have to be law abiding citizens, we still have a great deal of tools to exercize, our Bill of Rights, so that we might return to the civil purpose our forefathers intended concerning our collective happiness.
