I agree. Just the possibility of mass protests will influence the direction that those in power choose to take.

Truer words have never been spoken. "We the People" are the ones responsible for this mess.
I have already talked to my children about this out of control spending and explained to them that they are not responsible to pay for it. The government can impose as many tax increases as they wish, but if the tax burden is insufferable, who will pay the bill?
Understand that forced labor is a violation of our basic rights....
AMENDMENT XIII
Passed by Congress January 31, 1865. Ratified December 6, 1865.
Section 1.
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Involuntary servitude, look it up. My kids have no vote on this package of pork, they are going to be taxed without representation.
