These are just a few of the double standards you will see in our society. I would like to be as direct as possible so people can begin to see why we have such a thing as a Bill of Rights and a Constitution. Government is just as much responsible to the Rule of Law as the rest of us (if not more so). Governments need to always be accountable to the people and not the other way around. If you feel your government has violated your rights then its time to speak up and take some action. Don’t vote for the same politicians that lie, cheat, steal, and encourage corrupt behavior. Don’t vote for politicians that promise change and then act the same as the last tyrant. Don’t allow the Constitution to be violated by government. Don’t allow the government to abuse your liberties and steal your wealth. If people truly desire change then they must take the responsibility upon themselves first and educate those around them.
