Politics: Nothing New Under The Sun

We tend to complain or even become apathetic about politics because of all the 'corruption', but there is nothing new under the sun. As bad as it is, tyranny of the elite has become the norm for six thousand years. Man is inherently sinful, so he will seize power, and use it to his advantage. For this reason, America was started as a nation that recognized man's lust for power. However, the system will continue to degrade the more America leaves her basis for justice: a Judeo-Christian ethic. We will soon find out that direction. Even so, our God is sovereign, and nothing comes to pass apart from his decree. We rest in that as Christians.
