Honestly, I don't care if it works. I'm in the camp that says it isn't worth trading even a little liberty for security. I hate dealing with the police under any circumstances, and I would never voluntarily live somewhere that I could be commanded to submit to molestation for nothing.

I'll never be happy with government, though. At heart I'm an anarchist. I don't want or need government's protection. I'll take it since I have to pay for it, but I'd vote it gone in a heartbeat.
