You like being subjects or slaves?
I'm with Hillberg.
In the end, all power comes from the barrel of a gun. I, for one, do not trust any government to have that absolute power over it's citizens.
To quote some guy called George Washington:
""Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action."
