Perhaps some intercedence is acceptable, but it never stops there. Time and time again we see the metamorphosis of power invading, and eventually leading to, the complete usurpation of liberty. Sometimes from a singular act of benevolence. The problem with liberalism is that the precipitation of action is never afforded a thorough intellectual discourse. The common good, however fallaciously perceived, will always be at the detriment of those deemed as acceptable collateral damage. .-= theLibertyPen´s last blog ..<a href="http://thelibertypen.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-site-and-blog.html" rel="nofollow">A New Site and Blog</a> =-.

I once worked for a government agency and was assigned to check out possible fraud by a home health care agency. I went to the home in question and found the "caretaker" smoking around a patient who was on oxygen. Several oxygen tanks were around, including the one he was currently using. Had I not come along, the caretaker could have blown up, not only that place, but the adjoining units of the building. A report was made and the caretaker and agency were replaced. Sometimes oversight can be a positive. It should not, however, be intrusive. .-= askcherlock´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.askcherlock.com/?p=1590" rel="nofollow">Women: Pawns in Health Care Debate?</a> =-.

Maybe that should be modified to: "Every man expects England to do its duty." How sad. Whatever happened to Admiral Nelson’s final words: “England expects every man to do his duty.”

Maybe that should be modified to: “Every man expects England to do its duty.”

How sad.
