I've even seen some people on the Left start saying there might be something to this whole "Second Amendment protects you from a tyranical government" idea after all.
Being in power makes you arrogant. It makes you prideful. It makes you think you are right BECAUSE you have power. Everyone benefits from losing power on a regular basis. It reminds you that, when you make rules, you need to make them so that they're fair no matter which side you are on.
Granted, the assholes in power on both sides still get to ignore most of them, but it's good for us schmucks who vote for those assholes to keep that stuff in mind, when deciding which asshole is less of an asshole.
