delusions- I agree with parts of your arguement and disagree with others, as is expected.

However, I think the real problem begins with the Constitution, if it is in fact how most people here are understanding it, to put the individual first, to desire personal satisfaction over the benefit of all. If this is true, we have a fundamental problem with our country. Also, our country doesn't advocate the personal freedom of the masses, to make each individual more free. It's based off the simple majority rule, regardless if its only by one percent, regardless of right and wrong. This is also a major problem.
