kerepotan yang perlu Explanation: kurang lebih maksudnya adalah lebih baik tidak ada, tapi karena memang diperlukan/diharuskan maka harus diadakan. A necessary evil is anything which, despite being considered to have undesirable qualities, is preferable to its absence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necessary_Evil Faktor yang menyebabkan kelunturan paham kebebasan ekonomi adalah krisis keuangan global. Akibat krisis, pasar kehilangan kekuatan untuk menopang perekonomian. Semua kemudian berpaling ke sang necessary evil, yaitu negara. Dalam paham Keynessian, negara merupakan “setan yang dibutuhkan”, terutama pada saat krisis. Wajar saja, paham tersebut lahir ketika dunia tengah dalam belitan The Great Depression pada 1930-an. http://www.koran-jakarta.com/berita-detail.php?id=43504 |

Reference: several possibilities ... Reference information: A Google search reveals several alternatives: 'keburukan yang diperlukan' which sounds better to me than 'kejahatan yang perlu dilakukan', which sounds forced.
