“The contempt for law and the contempt for the human consequences of lawbreaking go from the bottom to the top of American society.”

A deficiency of humanity ?

Seems to me that TODAY the contempt for law and the contempt for the human consequences of lawbreaking go from the top down.

I agree with David......

Ok, What law, human consequences and what lawbreaking is specifically being referenced. Not really enough here to rate. There seems to be a general contempt for nature's law (with its individual sovereignty, inalienable rights and liberty). Such contempt is from the bottom up WHILE, it is taught, encouraged and enforced from the top down.

It's not possible to observe the criminals expressing any disagreement with the laws that clearly favor them.  It the law-abiding naturalist that express disagreement with the laws that clearly promote the "evil empire."
