Like most of those in my condition within society - middle class, good education, airs of an academic, and snobbishly left leaning liberal - I readily fall into the clichéd habit of cynicism towards government. Government, per se, is the thinking man's fetish. Anyone who has experienced a liberal arts education at the university level is a connoisseur of politics. Unlike French and their wine, however, we always favor vintages outside our fence. Who hasn't heard of a professor extolling the virtues of the British experience, for instance?
