Yes, it's okay that you think that.
But that has nothing to do with logical errors.

You might not think they live up to that, and you may find that the negatives outweigh the positives, but they do not intentionally keep poor people from working.

Yes, it's okay that you think that.
But there are still no logical errors.

Nor accuse someone of failing to graduate high school for not considering one branch to be more powerful than another when in fact what high school teaches is that all are checks and balances on each other. And that is true, YMMV on how that power is used.

High school teaches that the checks and balances are not equal. More properly said, "checks and imbalances". This is simple American Government teaching.

Because when something bad happens in a really big car – accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance – it happens very far away – way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
