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

Acton was a supporter of the South and its cause as few are today due to the incessant propaganda and ignorance of history.

“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.”

They, being keen students of history and without illusions about human nature, realized that any document however lofty its sentiments, always depended upon a moral and self regulating citizenry.

That we don't have. Instead we have a population that collectively is in the grip of an infantile fantasy where they can have what they want without consequence.

Hundreds of tons of drugs are snorted, injected, swallowed, smoked and huffed by the same population that supposedly is going to govern itself. and on and on.

So why should there be a revolution when the majority have what they want?

That is not the case. In Health Care over a majority DO NOT WANT THIS.

This country is almost 50/50 when compared with what the founders intended. The media, given their loud megaphone or being able to buy ink by the tanker load make it sound like most Americans want to live like parasites.

I do not believe for a moment that the left represents more than 50% of the country but what I do believe to my very core is that these position are diametrically opposed and no number of elections will ever resolve the issue.

Should we as a free people (questionable) decide to split and go our separate ways I would make sure we never create public schools with commie teacher’s unions and simply allow vouchers so parents have some control of what is being taught to their children. We cannot afford to have communists continue to teach our kids and just sit back and HOPE the kids reject such stupidity.

I want nothing to do with the left. They are vile human beings who absolutely have to use Saul Alinsky tactics to debate anything as the truth would destroy their position from the get go.
