I agree; the history of the country illustrates a continued abuse and dereliction of duty and power by the political institutions of the DC-tax regime. Liberty may seem anachronistic to the modern age, but I intended to die on the right side of the debate rather than standing in the square while the guillotine awaits its next victim.

Actually, John, I am in agreement with you on most things, but to consign yourself to the guillotine means that you will no longer, after your appointment is kept, be able to influence events in any way.

Victory requires that no one willing and able to make even the tiniest positive contribution may sell his life cheaply. Look at Solzhenitsyn, who caused such damage to the enemy. If he had insisted on dying _Gulag_ would never have been written.
