Moral Control is Necessary for Continued Cohesion in a Working State
Moral control of the whole society requires moral control of self and over the smaller societies of elected officials and government workers first in order to effect correct and balanced outcomes at large. If the core control is chaotic, the wider society will also fight unreasonably. Even those who want radically different things must find the central reality of morality in order to gain more than their own, usually warped extreme concept of their own desired goals, because a counter-balancing force is useful to feed in truths from the realm of some opposite, usually warped extreme concept. Neither extreme would be fun to live in, but neither group can stand to be balanced, due to our inherent sin-corruption, and, therefore, two - or better, more - extremes should be as open as possible to hearing and acquiescing to their opposites when it makes enough sense to do so, and, in this way, a central approach can be obtained, even when one extreme has the edge of 51% majority. That is, a small 2 or 3 percent can change between all the extremes, giving way to a little of each. This works best when each decision is small.
For example. in the House of Representatives, sometimes the Democrats and sometimes the Republicans should edge out the other, the larger group voting with the smaller block and the smaller with the larger, especially when the larger block has abstaining members or members who vote with the minority, allowing the mix to work like Brownian motion without the need for strict control of any individual member.
When the core control members are out-of-control and only given to winning even when the prize is not optimal, or when the larger governmental worker society conspires to withhold, obstruct, or obfuscate, we all suffer.
