Makes you realize just how many Americans would be happy if we were still under a monarchy.
Don't get me started - I know of a half-dozen FReepers who would be happy if we moved to one.
Indeed. Colonists came to American to escape oppression. Then they had to rebel as it followed them. And even then there was a great portion of Americans who shunned freedom.
Now we have created generations of voluntary slaves craving the yoke of oppression in exchange for bread and circuses. And they are just about to extinguish the light of freedom forever.
The Great Experiment is almost over.
