That would be where we disagree. I believe our government officials are often motivated by their own personal interests as opposed to the public interest. That is why we have a system that allows, and indeed encourages dissent. That is why we have three branches of government. Our forefathers recognized the tendency for power to corrupt us and attempted to build a system that would make that difficult to happen. I believe we, as citizens, must be vigilant and continually demand the best from our our elected officials.
