There are many things that cast doubt on the legitimacy of government.  Any man that has gone through a divorce in Michigan knows just how biased our circuit courts are (gender bias at a rate of 9 to 1 in favor of women).  And any non custodian parent / defendant accused of not meeting their child support obligations knows just how unjust Michigan’s family law practice is.  And last but not least, those arrested under MCL 750.165 – Failure to Support, knows that the bias and corrupt District courts are as corrupt as any in human history.  As such, it isn’t the reporting of corruption (that everyone knows) that casts doubt on Our government, but rather the lack of public servant prosecutions that casts doubts on the legitimacy of Our government.
