Sudarymas: The Perpetual Burden of Liberty

The constitutional safeguards against government overreach are not self-executing. They require constant vigilance from all three branches of government and from the people themselves. The separation of powers, the intricate system of checks and balances, the explicit prohibitions of the Bill of Rights, and the division of authority between the states and the federal government form a comprehensive architecture of restraint. The defining characteristic of American constitutionalism is the radical proposition that the government is the servant of the law, not the master of it. Preserving this principle of limited authority is the perpetual burden of a free society, demanding of its citizens both an understanding of their constitutional heritage and the courage to insist that the government respect the legal boundaries that define a republic. This framework remains the most durable and effective bulwark ever devised against the natural human tendency to accumulate and abuse power.
