"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms.

This is about fairness.

If Big Business, Big Crony, Big Union, and Big Congress can all get special treatment of exemptions, waivers, subsidies, etc., then so can the people.

I want my exemption.

I want freedom of religion.

I want the end of death panels and everything connected to them.
