“Scale that up to the size of the US population....and you get over 750,000 euthanizing events a year...”

When you give up liberty, you give up life. What our founding fathers knew instinctively is just now beginning to dawn on people who have become dependent on “popular” government programs.

I agree totally! Some people imagine themselves to be more intelligent than our founding fathers simply because so much has changed in a way that, “They could not have foreseen”, I say that is bovine droppings. Every year added to my time on Earth convinces me more and more that, in the things that really matter in governing, the founding fathers were so far ahead of our current thinking that it is astounding. When I think of who might be on their level now the first name I think of is Dr. Thomas Sowell, he is one of a very few today who is capable of the clarity of writing exhibited by the founding fathers. He is also one of a VERY small number who seem to have anything resembling the understanding of human nature which is evident in their writings. They understood that what is desirable is far different from what is possible and the meaning of the old saying, “Leave WELL ENOUGH alone.” We are now plagued with millions of self-proclaimed do-gooders who understand none of that. Too many Americas want to follow a false Messiah into the pit of a MAN MADE hell.
