Our Constitutional Republic was a grand idea; a wonderful and fragile experiment in Life, Liberty & The Pursuit of Happiness. We are now too far down socialism’s “free stuff” slope to stop the descent into madness and collapse. It’s not the fall that will kill us; it’s the sudden stop at the bottom.
Your post reminds me of this quote by Ben Franklin making the rounds today:
“When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.”
