From you they expect miracles. Make the next door neighbor's dog stop barking. Make my children smarter than tacks. Make crime disappear, at least from my door. Guarantee that nothing will ever change, except to make my life better.
Government is a system.
It does its thing. It does what the law expects it to do, the way the law says it should be done. It can't do everything, and it would fail if it tried. That's why these seminars are held. The law has its own pecking order, in reverse order to the presence of the governments in our lives.
