The reality of 1776 might bump into the reality of 2016, and find that they really don’t match up. If you were a guy in 1776....you probably had three or four things that worried you or bothered your view of life. Today? Most people have 300-odd things which run through our worry-list on a daily basis, and generally believe in some fairy-tale sort of way that the government will help save us, or condemn us with the list of things on the worry-list.
