This statement alone tells us to control our State governments and we will control the Federal Government.

“The State governments possess inherent advantages, which will ever give them an influence and ascendancy over the National Government, and will for ever preclude the possibility of federal encroachments. That their liberties, indeed, can be subverted by the federal head, is repugnant to every rule of political calculation.
Alexander Hamilton (speech to the New York Ratifying Convention, 17 June 1788 “

If thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought.
George Orwell


Keep that quote in mind, and listen to people talking. It's an eye-opener.

“Our problems are both acute and chronic, yet all we hear from those in positions of leadership are the same tired proposals for more government tinkering, more meddling and more control—all of which led us to this state in the first place... We must have the clarity of vision to see the difference between what is essential and what is merely desirable, and then the courage to bring our government back under control and make it acceptable to the people.” Ronald Reagan

[sigh] We could sure use a big dose of Reagan about now.

Thanks for the PING!

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences.” –C.S. Lewis”

Another from George Bernard Shaw:

A government that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.
