In theory, the political system exists to enhance our well-being. Its purpose is to make us safe, make us wealthy, protect us from our own folly and sin, to make commerce and community possible, to punish bad guys, and administer justice when possible. That’s the theory, but then there’s the reality: nothing the state does that is worth doing cannot be done better by people themselves. That’s especially obvious in our time when the forces of innovation and progress are entirely on the side of markets, while governments are left behind to wallow in their own bureaucratic and politicized mire.
