Facts about "GOVERNMENT INSTITUTION IS A MACHINE"
Entailment | the ability of the government to fulfill its responsibilites depends on its functional status (the ability of the machine to function depends on the state of its physical structure (physical status), e.g rusty, broken, well-oiled, ?, ?) + |
Example | English (If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth--certainly the machine will wear out. If the injustice has a spring, or a pulley, or a rope, or a crank, exclusively for itself, then perhaps you may consider whether the remedy will not be worse than the evil, but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn., ?, ?, Thoreau, On the duty of civil disobedience, ?, ?) + and English (They had elected him (Jackson) to conduct the Government and to keep and remove its moneys, and he meant to do so on the principle that it was a simple machine., ?, ?, query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res..., ?, ?, ?) + |
