>Citizens of a democratic nation have one job to do.
This seems circular, and makes it sound like citizens exist to serve the government rather than the other way around.
- krapp 7y agoOptimally it should be a mutually beneficial relationship.
- artfulhippo 7y agoThe idea that a government could benefit sounds weird to me. I think of benefiting as requiring a subjective personal experience. When you fix your car, does your car benefit? When you remodel your house, does your house benefit? In my mind, government functions, and ideally it functions in service of the people.
