3. Very informative. In America, the sovereign is above the law because he appoints it.

Hobbes makes the case for government regulation. The article talks about the idea that he wrote the Leviathan for a would-be sovereign. It seems like he was kissing up to this sovereign by giving him such absolute power. Nixon and W. Bush proved the dangers of that. The world continues to cry for justice for the crimes against humanity committed by W. The Supreme Joke and everyone who supports bush are likewise guilty as his accomplices. Today, they continue to mouth-off as if their sh*t doesn't stink to high heaven!
