“The ancient Greeks maintained that democracy would never
work because once the people figured out that they held the keys to the
treasury, they would loot it.
"Our founding fathers knew this and created a
republic to place honorable men between the treasury and the rabble. This
worked for a couple of hundred years.
"However, today the honorable men have
become the rabble themselves and have looted the treasury of not only all its
money but of untold decades of future money that has not even been created yet.
"Historically, after each looting, a tyranny followed.”
“On this day, as we honor those who have died for our
freedom, let us not vote that freedom away in a selfish quest to get free
stuff. The blood of our heroes should not be sold so cheaply.”
