At least in modern times, the -big government- vs -small government- debate in this country is overwhelmingly a myth. Ninety-nine percent of the time, the only real issue is what the government's PRIORITIES are. If the priorities happen to be things in line with benefiting regular Americans (e. g. health care, public education, etc, talking heads on TV, etc. will warn their viewers about the dangers of -bigger government. - But if we spend hundreds of billions (or more) bailing out Wall Street Banks, prosecuting decades-long wars for reasons that never really get explained, mysteriously, these things don't fall under the umbrella of -big government. -

I hope that a future series is Supreme Court cases. I'd love 5 minute summaries of how the case came up, the arguments on both sides, and the legacy of the rulings for a bunch of cases. Plessy v Ferguson, Brown v Board, Koromatsu, Maubury vs Madison, Citizens United, Reynolds v US, Loving v Virginia, and plenty that I haven't heard of that shape my life in ways that are all but invisible to me since the Supreme Court is about as transparent as lead.

Is it my impression - and I really hope I'm not the first one saying it - or was it a really, really bad idea to make a Crash Course Politics on American Government! I have absolutely no anti-american sentiments whatsoever but, guys, come on. You're on the freakin' Internet! It's a very wide audience! A little open-mindedness and multi-culturalism, please.

In the A. C. E, the legislative branch is Animalism, the executive branch is Dictatorialism and the judicial branch is Authoritarianism, three branches are troubles against Democracy and itself as a hypocrite.

-. INS versus child a case but never INS versus chodo welling up so that's a delegation is fair enough but it doesn't. - good job closed captions.

I wish I had a brain for this kind of stuff. Science is easy; it's just logic. Government is a ridiculously complicated set of arbitrary rules.

One video without an eagle punch is a victory. The first step in defeating a problem is realizing there is one. #StandwithEagle #EagleAbuseIsNazism
