Wonderful insights, but your mention of "virtuous" citizens gave me pause. As Jefferson said, "Our Constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other".
When one looks at the moral decay of our culture in the past decades are we beyond repair? It seems that decay is occurring more rapidly each year. I believe a large part of that decay is that we've become a Godless society.

As I wrote this morning - government has lost the presumption of good intentions.
With the veil stripped away, the entire edifice is up for reevaluation.
