This quick statement summarizes in very elegant form, the foundations of
what government by the people and for the people should be all about.
I can't agree more.  Problem is, the vast majority of folks exist either
in blissful ignorance; fear; or lack of resource/understanding to
challenge the status quo.

I generally stay away from making any political statements online, but
Chuck's great observation struck such a chord with me that I had to
respond.
