Alexander Fraser Tytler:
"“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship..."

There in a nutshell is the strategy of Dem's open border - and they are doing it❗ Creating a 'majority' that will plunder the public treasury in order to make themselves comfortable and prosperous. Our rulers now represent the NEWCOMERS at the expense of existing citizens.

I have labeled it: Representation without taxation!

And we don’t have a democracy, which is good. A representative Republic. But the upper echelons are so corrupt, it cannot be fixed without outside intervention. Let me dig up my quote about this, it’s on my desktop:

When once a Republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil.

Thomas Jefferson quoting Baron de Montesquieu
