I'm with you AppyPappy. I posted this earlier this afternoon on another thread -

I woke up thinking about this quote from Thomas Paine in 1776 -
"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. "

Consider those things portions of your fruits, taken by this regime, go to fund. Abortion, illegal immigration, gun control, promotion of homosexuality, indoctrination of our youth, 47% population dependency, war on coal, war on fracking, war on our faith to mention only a few.

Don't you think the height of stupidity is continuing to fund our own destruction?

Respectfully,
