    In this segment of my US History EOC Review series, I discuss the legacy of English traditions of government that influenced institutions of government in Colonial America and subsequently the United States. Topics included are the Magna Carta, the English Bill of Rights, and John Locke's theories of government.
    This is the first part of my review lecture addressing USHC 1.2 in the South Carolina curriculum standards for US History and the Constitution.

    England and the rest of Europe *really* don't like small government. It's *still* a very foreign concept. We are the only country that only embraces small government.

      If small government means millions of people have no health insurance, then thank God for the UK's "big government"! In any case, I would argue that the United States does big government by other means: mainly via it's military-industrial complex and spy agencies. And it's not as if your "small government" gives Americans more choice. As Gore Vidal said, there is no difference between Democrats and Republicans, they are both parties of property. Voting for change is an illusion. Sounds like big government to me, or at least a government that is never authentically approved by its people. Trump promised to drain the swamp: well, he got drowned in it. And so it goes.

      @@LittleImpaler Yes I do. You just seem oblivious to the ways in which Big Government works in insidious ways. To put it very simply: the US has replaced "big government" with "big business" and corporatism. Government and corporates are as one, working together. You think you are free to choose between one expensive health insurance policy and another? That is no freedom. That is not small government. It's an abnegation of government as it hands its powers to the corporates. The public is no better off. It's a constitutional disaster. The Founding Fathers would weep. And you've used 'really' twice in the same sentence.

      Not me. I do my best to be respectful, but I will never understand how many people still bow down to these people. People of the U.S. should bow to no person.

      @@awakenow7147 The British do not "bow down" to their Monarchy. Monarchy is constitutionally important as a backstop against a potential runaway Parliament; just as Parliament is a backstop against a runaway Monarchy. The British constitution is finely balanced. As someone once said, it is the best (unwritten) constitution on earth and it wouldn't work anywhere else! It is quite unique, but also very influential in the constitution of the United States, which is itself the best written constitution on earth. In any case, I much prefer a Royal Family, free of politics, to act as Head of State, and Prime Minister in Parliament, rather than a President as Head of State. I like the separation of those powers in the UK.
