“Once you start to provide public services that have to be run under public rules, for example child protection, then it has to go with public law.

“I think the knowledge about how legislation really affects small businesses is extremely valuable. If you haven't run a small business, then you don't have this kind of knowledge about how a regulation passed or taxes increased affects your bottom line.

“And what has come to prevail in democracies is the very reverse of beneficial, in those, that is, which are regarded as the most democratically run. The reason for this lies in the failure properly to define liberty. For there are two marks by which democracy is thought to be defined: "sovereignty of the majority" and "liberty." "Just" is equated with what is equal, and the decision of the majority as to what is equal is regarded as sovereign; and liberty is seen in terms of doing what one wants.” WantTwoReasonRunningLyingPoliticsTermDecisionLibertyEconomyDemocracyEqualMarkMajorityDefinedLiberalismReverseSovereignSovereigntyBeneficial Author:Aristotle
