He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

That's my favorite line of the declaration.

That one jumps out at me every time I read it.

More O'Rourke..

"So when can we quit passing laws and raising taxes? When can we say of our political system, "Stick a fork in it, it's done"? When will our officers, officials and magistrates realize that their jobs are finished and return, like Cincinnatus, to the plow or, as it were, to the law practice or the car dealership? The mystery of government is not how Washington works but how to make it stop." [P.J. O'Rourke]
