sorry to put on my libertarian helm here but...
may end up getting overzealous and interfering in ways that will have unintended and negative consequences
may? MAY?!. read some history. how about 100% of governments throughout all of recorded history? how's that for may?
100%? There has never been an underzealous government? Not that I'm saying I can name one.
well, this hints at much deeper subtleties than just naming governments. how are we to delineate what counts? if we say that a temporary decline in government tyranny doesn't count then the original assertion can be made true by choosing long enough time periods.
thus we are knee deep in the legitimacy problem: what successions can be counted as a continuation of the previous regime and which are not?
