Polit. Deontology
Love of liberty is but secondary, a negative
principle. It supposes admits a existence
§ Ruling principle, maximum of utility: corresponding ruling affective
philanthropy.
Where In so far as the ruling principle is the maximum of utility
the correspondent affection – the affection from which it receives
its support, and by the cultivation and exercise exercitation of
which it is is strengthened – is philanthropy.
Where the ruling principle is the love of liberty,
the corresponding affection – the affection from which it
receives its support, and by the cultivation of which and
exercise of which it is strengthened, is but self regarding
interest.
Love of liberty is but importance of controul.
But controul is necessary not only to the well being but
to the being of society. Importance to Controul is necessary
to be being of every government: of the best not
less as than of the worst. The exercise application of controul
is the essential character of all government.
The spirit of liberty is the spirit of opposition.
But the spirit of opposition is not philanthropy.
To a first view It is more manifestly opposed adverse to philanthropy
than considered with it or subservient to it. The A
spirit of opposition – a constantly existing howsoever
moderated and regulated spirit of opposition – is indeed
necessary to good government – and as such, in so far
as it is under the guidance of philanthropy, is coincident
with and subservient to philanthropy. But in so far as it is if not under
the guidance of philanthropy it is adverse to philanthropy
and the fruit of it
in so far as it prevails
is bad weak government
bad government mischief.
