Abramoff Scandal

From Dr. Yaron Brook:



Washington's attempts to fight rampant corruption will amount to nothing unless they address its basic cause.



The fundamental reason for today's rampant corruption is that our government has adopted a corrupt purpose. Once a protector of the life, liberty, and property of every American, the US government now uses its power to pursue an undefined "public good" by sacrificing some Americans to other Americans.



If we want to get rid of the Jack Abramoffs and the "bridges to nowhere," we have to return our government to its sole legitimate purpose: the protection of individual rights.
