Our problem, even with those who call themselves conservative, is that not enough people love liberty. That’s the bottom line.
A la John Adams, they’ve traded liberty for (perceived) security, which is, a paycheck.
Spot on! Only when Americans realize that their home doesn't belong to them, their debt is binding them in slavery, and that big screen TV and booze to watch the game on isn't all that important, we will continue the descent into the abyss. Some folks are waiting for a "trigger event" - that's all I ever hear - we need something to happen to get them to wake up...well, that "trigger event" is never going to happen. We won't just be thrown into the pot. The heat will rise gradually until it's too late, and we're frog soup.
