Revolutions inevitably fail as the new regime becomes just as oppressive as what it replaced.

“Revolutions inevitably fail as the new regime becomes just as oppressive as what it replaced.”


While recorded history tends to prove this, at least there was a period of time when this country followed the concept of limited government as set forth by the founders.

They gave us the escape clause and it is on our shoulders to use it or lose it.

Governments are always power hungry and just as Lord Acton said; “Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

We have reached our absolute power point with our federal government and many state governments. There can be no dispute that the founders gave us a constitution to retain a limited government and for whatever reason we the people have allowed the government to exceed its constitutional limits.

Decades of public education have given this country millions of spineless parasites which have made generations who live off the productivity of others.

If we ended public education in its current form today it would take generations to repair the damage. We do not have generations as the Marxist communist filth are at the door, they are running the country and IMO they have pushed far enough to trigger the Jefferson escape plan.

Well I guess then that the AMerican revolution of 1776 has failed and now it is replaced by an oppressive, Utopian , fascist regime. I agree with that.

Good read:
