Fantastic quote from Adams, but low info voters today have the attention span of an adolescent guppy. The Bible is elegant in it’s simplicity - “If a man will not work, then let him not eat”.
“Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.”
- John Adams
