John Stuart Mill once observed:
“Every kind and degree of evil of which man is susceptible may be inflicted on them by their government.”
That is the purpose of a power-constraining, and power-dividing constitution. If not to prevent, as least to limit the frequency and the magnitude of such “evil” from government.
