Government has a duty to govern

Government is for governing. There is no other function for a government. Its the most unnecessary 'function' for any one human being living in a condition of 'aloneness'. One human being does not need government. Sometimes we can see that 'phenomena' when we study the institution of marriage. Married people divorce because sometimes two human beings, for whatever reasons, either choose not to live together, or cannot live together. Now apply the same principle to millions of people 'living in a condition of togetherness' and you begin to see the necessity of Government and Law. Unfortunately, human beings require government and law lest they be at each others throat. The communal 'condition of togetherness' is much more complex than the institution of marriage between two people. Unfortunately, human nature is not such that it can exist in a 'condition of togetherness' without the help of government and law. That being said, a form of Government is given to us in the Constitution. but that form must be interpreted objectively by the Third Branch of government viz. the Judicial branch. The problems arise when the People at the Bottom of government begin to divide-up ( because there are millions of individuals) and begin to form into antagonistic political Parties and political 'groups' like Labor Unions, Teachers Unions, etc.. Labor Unions had to form because employers were not being fair in the distribution of wages, duties, and work hours. At one time 'child labor' was being used and exploited. My point is government is necessary and government must govern. It must govern all areas of the social where the 'freedom and equality' of the human individual is not being respected. A government has the right and duty to correct any known 'disrespect' and abuse of the human condition. Yes, we have Labor laws because they were necessary. But opposing Political Parties and ideologies are eroding those 'controlling mechanism' and the Supreme Court is complicit with them. A Democratic Government has a duty to the People it governs.
