we rejoice in the victory for Scott Brown in the State of Massachusetts!
For it is a strong signal, very strong, sent not just members of the Democratic Party Americans, but states in general, of all kinds and all categories, whether Democrats or Republicans, the Conservative Right or Left Progressive, neo-conservatives or Social Democrats, whatever! It's always those who think that we should always more government to solve society's problems, as if it was a great mechanic that could change at will the wheels (male sum).
Obviously, as a good statesman, Scott Brown has skillfully ride a popular wave to win this election. But beware, there is little chance that the great reformer is expected, indeed it is very unlikely and inconsistent with the role of statesman. These are elected at any cost for this much-maligned power.
The paradox is so brilliant, how this new man in Washington will ask the peer of Washington that they cede their power?
Voters ask him that policies have less control over their lives, they do more and far away, they can not charge more for their business and stop spending without counting their money, in short that they have little power. So little basically, as the elected would no longer promise anything to get elected because they would simply have the means and opportunities to make laws. This would render meaningless the interest of elected politics.
Moreover, these same Republicans who today are fighting tooth and nail to limit and reduce spending and state intervention, participated in the Bush era in its largest expansion since the presidency Lyndon Johnson.
But let's not be pessimistic. In this era of increasing State control is an encouraging sign.
The Economist, in its edito this week, is clear on this point, a great battle over the state and its role going to commit, it will be the focal point of all discussions. And Massachusetts is the first manifestation.
