Moral Politics: 'Only a Virtuous People Are Capable of Freedom'

As Ben Franklin once said:

“[O]nly a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.”
Addressing the morality crisis in politics isn’t merely about protecting certain people’s sensibilities. It isn’t about making politics more comfortable or dignified. It’s about preserving the Republic we have spent centuries cultivating.
