The following is attributed to Alexander Tyler A Scotsman, some historians disagree however. But, whoever said it was very wise indeed.
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public teasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to the loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by dictatorship."
"The average age of the worlds greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has always been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. From bondage to spiritual faith;
2. From spiritual faith to great courage;
3. From courage to liberty;
4. From liberty to abundance;
5. From abundance to complacency;
6. From complacency to to apathy;
7. From apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage"
At this point in time we have reached number 6 and are fast becoming dependent on government. In fact Obama and the democrats are making sure every person in this country will be dependent on government.
In my humble opinion if things do not change in the next two years we all will be in bondage and no longer will be able to claim that we are a free people.
PENSEZ LA LIBERTE
VIVE LIBERTE
VOTE LIBERTARIAN!
