For so long as the American people have no idea what all of this government is actually costing them - something it is absolutely impossible for them to know for so long as the Marxist income tax remains a part of our tax code - there will never be any pressure to stop the spending!

Spending more than it takes in by margins frightening to contemplate when taking into consideration all the unfunded mandates and bennie programs of ninety-plus trillions that have to be paid out.

Breaking the Laws of Economics as we have, Lo- these many decades - the amount of pain that is going to befall us will be unlike anything any nation has ever suffered before us.

Weimar will be seen as a picnic in the park when the consequences of what this government has sown are visited upon this country.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
