It seems like you are saying that people that choose to obey the law are conformist? I would have valued some kind of solution other than people just choosing what laws to break. As far as someone that is elected representing your values and opinions, I have always thought the one that lined up most closely was the one that would get my vote. It would be ridiculous to think that one person could possibly represent each persons opinion with all the differing opinions out there. So, in an elected office one would have the interest of the majority in mind. This idea that currently has everyone's attention, that some small facet (a few percent) of society dictating what is OK and what is not to the majority is a joke and eventually will come to an end. Nice post though, I would have liked some ideas on solutions, pointing out problems is the easy part that anyone can do.
