A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage.

We are on the road to tyranny. WE HAVE TO STARVE THE BEAST!!!!!!! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE! STRIKE!
It cant happen until we have one voice! We have to have a leader and He/She has to be willing to sacrifice everything in order to take this charge up! Someone will have to be the first to take a step in the water.....because we all will be looking side to side to see who is brave enough to go first

I’m afraid that this past election is a palpable example of the fact that we have reached critical mass on voters who look to the government for a living.
Not just the burgeoning mass of obvious government workers who report for “work” to an actual government building, but teachers, labor unions, firefighters, cops, “minorities”, and yes even some military.
