QuoteIs government ethical?
The idea of government is fundamentally morally upright and just. But my government is not, though it was certainly intended to be from the start.
The thing is, If all men were morally upright and just (righteous), then it would not matter what form of government was had, all would result in the same, a righteous body. Only we could argue about what form a perfectly wise people would create in the first place. But it would be moot, since no such people exist in this world now or ever before. Still, its an argument to raise our children in a certain light.
