Dealing With The State
Dealing with the State
Please consider the following quote and place your thoughts about it within your reply:
"In dealing with the State, we ought to remember that its institutions are not aboriginal, though they existed before we were born; that they are not superior to the citizen; that every one of them was once the act of a single man; every law and usage was a man's expedient to meet a particular case; that they all are imitable, all alterable; we may make as good; we may make better."
-- Ralph Raldo Emerson - (1803-1882) Source: Essays, Second Series (1844)
