OK, I stayed out of it for a while, but...with Mary's "accidental" murder, Michael dies, too. Not physically, but it takes everything out of him. There's no way he would want to have any part of the "family" after that. I like Liz Skywalker's version alot, and agree that that is exactly what FFC and MP wanted to convey. Apples
A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
