“ . . .Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, – That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter it or to abolish it . . . it is (not only) their right it is their duty . . .”
Thomas Jefferson, 1776
The Declaration of Independence
democracy is nothing more than mob rule where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the forty-nine.
The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public’s money.
Alexis de Tocqueville
