Claire and I went and saw V for Vendetta last night. The movie has an interesting story or concept. Basically, what will happen if governments no longer fear their citizens and their citizens end up fearing the government.
The movie itself wasn't that flash.
What interested me was that a movie on this topic has been made. This means people are starting to think about this issue which in term indicates that the influence of government must be getting close to a point where it is too much.
In NZ we face an extremely expansionist government that wants to be involved in a lot more aspects of our lives. At this stage they have only, in a limited way, started to impact on the citizen's right to vote them out.
