jcwinterton obviously is a rabid libertarian. As a formerly rabid libertarian,
I sympathize. However, it is only the inefficiency of our governments that
protects our liberties.  Efficient government would presumably try to enforce
all of its laws. For example, adultery is illegal nearly everywhere - when
was the last arrest?  A city near here (North York) about three years ago 
managed to make sex illegal.
 
Can you imagine the mess if the government was as efficient as, say, DEC?

DEC efficient?  You people must be nuts!!  Take a look at DEC from my
point of view (inside the monster) and then talk to me about
efficiency.
