Because we no longer have a constitutional republic.
We have a rogue government led by what amounts to two organized crime families. They are "in it" for the money and power. You exist to serve them.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free"
[Ronald Reagan]
