There is a contradiction, however, in governmental MOs and indeed the possible raison d'etre for a government.
On the one hand, the government's primary focus is the welfare of its citizens (or at least should be. Which is itself a contradiction, perhaps...), thus it should be preventing those that would harm this notion from operating, which in turn means it's preventing the welfare of its citizens.
FUCK.
and hence the discourse of politics is born.
