Hobbes's View

I agree with Shannon's statement "I honestly believe this electing a leader to unite the people under fear for peace and safety stuff is crap." There is no way that any group of people would long put up with a leader who makes them live in terror of the government. Whenever people become angry with their government, they tend to rebel, resist, or leave the country. One modern example might be Syria. The people there are rebelling against their oppressive government and leaving the country because they have become fed up with the government's policies. If "The Leviathan" were ever to come into existence, it would surely soon have a rebellion on its hands.
