The government can only be brought down because it alienates several parties in the House.

What the government has to do, if it wants to govern for any length of time, is it must appeal primarily to the third parties in the House of Commons to get them to support it.

Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It ever has been and ever will be pursued until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit. In a society under the forms of which the stronger faction can readily unite and oppress the weaker, anarchy may as truly be said to reign as in a state of nature, where the weaker individual is not secured against the violence of the stronger; and as, in the latter state, even the individuals are prompted, by the uncertainty of their condition, to submit to a government which may protect the weak as well as themselves; so, in the former state, will the more powerful factions or parties be gradually induced, by a like motive to wish for a government which will protect all parties, the weaker as well as the more powerful.

Identities
I bought a car, built a house
And threw parties with strains
To belong to higher strata.
There I was held the lowest
For my small car, small house
And small hall parties.
I wish I had not done.

Sonnet: Elections’ Aftermath!
The elections are over in some states;
The better parties have come back to pow’r;
Some corrupt ministers had sealed their fates;
The summer heat is lessened by cool show’r.
The sufferings of farmers ceased a bit;
Most lakes are full of water brought by rain;
Relief sighs come from teachers who’re hard-hit;
Government servants seem happy again.
Most people hope to live a peaceful life;
Their days of debts and eating rats are gone;
The leader now will help them out of strife;
The Rising Sun has brought a newer dawn!
Let’s thank the Lord who changed the state of things!
Let pride / revenge not fill the hearts of kings!

Misery
Misery
I know you got troubles but you dont have to spread it about
Misery
You moan and you groan but all of that I can live without
Well
Until you stop worrying about yourself
Youll never get anywhere with me
Ill still be hanging in there but youre still a misery
Until you learn to laugh youll never come to any parties at my house
My house
And if you go on like this the only house youll ever visit is the nut house
Nut house
Youre such a misery, why dont you learn to laugh
Look in the mirror and
Dont take yourself so seriously
Well
Dollar bills could fall from the sky
But still you wouldnt be satisfied
But Im not going to let you depress me
Until you learn to laugh youll never come to any parties at my house
My house
And if you go on like this the only house youll ever visit is the nut house
Nut house
Youre such a misery, why dont you learn to laugh
Look in the mirror and
Dont take yourself so seriously
Ah ah ah ah
Misery
Youre only happy when youre feeling totally down
Misery
I only ever see you when your chins hanging on the ground
Well
Until you learn to laugh at yourself
Youll never get anywhere with me
Im down but Im still happy but
Youre such a misery, well
Youre such a misery, well
Youre such a misery

I believe in an America with a government of men devoted solely to the public interests — men of ability and dedication, free from conflict or corruption or other commitment — a responsible government that is efficient and economical, with a balanced budget over the years of the cycle, reducing its debt in prosperous times — a government willing to entrust the people with the facts that they have — not a businessman's government, with business in the saddle … not a labor government, not a farmer's government, not a government of one section of the country or another, but a government of, for and by the people.

The So Called Honorable
For to cling to power or for need of power on most policies they disagree
Between the Government and their Opposition there's does not seem much difference to me
Those out of power verbally attack those in power that is how it's been for years
Who wins or loses the Election should not be cause for joy or tears.
Who is in or out of power I for one do not care
That they do not bring change to my life for the good I am all too aware
Democracy is the best form of Government by many we are told
But the workings of Parliament has not changed from the long gone days of old.
Of the praises of Democratically Elected Governments many feel happy to sing
But in Parliament that Parliamentarians obliged to vote with their own parties does not seem a democratic thing
And that the Party or Parties elected by the majority of the voters makes decisions for everyone
Is hardly true democracy when all is said and done.
The hierarchy refer to Parliamentarins as the honorable a title he or she for life does keep
But such a title for most Politicians makes the word honor seem cheap
Like dysfunctional adolescents in Parliament every day
Supposed to be honorable men and women behave in a most immature way.

We now have a political process, we've had a period of parties that have been fighting each other quite literally with bombs and bullets, talking to each other, and having sat together in the assembly and sharing government with each other.

The rule of law should be upheld by all political parties. They should neither advise others to break the law, nor encourage others to do so even when they strongly disagree with the legislation put forward by the government of the day.

The Right To Own A Gun
i have a gun
i need a gun
not because i need to kill
but because
i need to defend myself
from the
intruders
do not deny me
then
of my right to own a gun
you own a gun
many guns
and you are the government
and i am the plain
citizen Kane
do not deny me
the right to own one
you are the government
and you cannot protect
me every moment
inside the walls of my house
i am king
enter without my permission
and i must kill
for inside my house
no matter how humble
are the beams and doors
and windows
in here
i am king...

The Big Push
If a country wants to successfully take off
In the sky of prosperity
It needs huge investment
But the least developed countries
Can hardly afford it
However
If there is a will
There is a way
There are many donor
Agencies and countries
Who are ready to provide soft loan
To the LDCs
So the government of the LDCs
Should encourage
Unsolicited project proposals
From the international donors
And prepare suitable project profiles
That will benefit both the parties
Moreover
The government officials
Should be highly trained
So that they can evaluate
The viability of the offers properly
In this way
The LDCs will be able to big push
The economy so that it can take off

Almost any government activity can also be seen as taking property ""without just compensation."" The basic model of an unconstitutional ""taking"" would be if the government threw you out of your house.
