We are told that “good government” praises those who do good and punish those who do evil. Of course, that is a key metric to determine whether or not man-made, human, mandatory governments can be tolerated as a necessary evil, or rejected as tyrannical parasites which must be put down.
Here in our homeland, we see something even worse, perhaps, than not praising those who do good and not punishing those who do evil. What is that? Government that enables, instigates, and protects those who do evil. When justice is denied to victims of parasites, evil-doers in government positions of authority, and the evil-doers are unindicted, untried, and unpunished.
Ah? But what is evil? Today, there might not be a lot of agreement on that. But so far, the vast majority of people in the States (we think, at least) believe that pedophilia is evil. That men and women who prey on children, and even those defined as “under-age,” are doing wrong. They must be stopped, must be prevented from committing sexual acts (or even trying to commit them) with children. (We here at TPOL know of some who have been sent to prison for that.)
As more and more comes out from the Epstein files and the seeming attempts by prominent members of the current regime and bureaucracy to hide names and actions? Consider this:
It is not, of course, just Republicans: go to this list what has more dozens of Republicans and many Democrats. Now, we realize that these lists may be bogus, or have many errors: just as both the mainstream media and the alternative media try to push their agendas. And some of these are decades old.
The point is: while many of these have been exposed, tried, convicted, and punished, many have not been. (And the punishments are often little more than hand-slaps.) Yes, we must keep ensuring that people are innocent until proven guilty, even of something like this. But the signs are clear: American governments are not providing justice for victims, nor justice to predators.

The Price of Liberty 
More injustice in our world
Yesterday, we looked at the incredible record of American politicians and government officials engaged in, and sometimes found, tried, convicted, and maybe punished, for abusing children (and others) sexually.
As we pointed out, such evil is not the only way in which those in power are committing evil deeds.
A correspondent of TPOL lists a lot of actions in which seemingly nothing is being done to provide justice both to the perpetrators and victims (or at least their families and communities).
She points out: “Whether it’s Epstein’s client list or the theft of billions of tax-payer dollars or a myriad of other national sins, these sores must be exposed so our nation can finally heal.”
A partial list:
