This overreach is often manifested in the area of taxation. As Doug Wilson so clearly articulates, "When the ruling elites start to opt out of this societal bond—“laws are for the little people”—there is usually a time lag, but the “little people” do catch on. And when they catch on, the whole thing spirals down into chaos." We are living on the edge of that "chaos" today.
