There is really only one responsible way forward: dismantle Leviathan before it destroys us.– Jeffrey Tucker, "It Shouldn't Matter Who the President Is" [March 2, 2016]

Quote:
Let dogs delight to bark and bite,
For "God" has made them so:
Let bears and lions growl and fight,
For ‘tis their nature, too.

But, children, you should never let
Such angry passions rise:
Your little hands were never made
To tear each other’s eyes.
–Isaac Watts (1715)

Worrycrats, as I call them, are a special breed of totalitarian bureaucrats who spawn rapidly as society is socialized. These people concern themselves with our health, education, welfare, auto safety, drug intake, diet, and what have you. Worrycrats today outnumber any other professionals in history, so rapidly have they proliferated.– Leonard E. Read, The Freeman [April 1971]

“That’s the way the ruling class operates in any society. They keep the lower and the middle classes fighting with each other… Anything different—that’s what they’re gonna talk about—race, religion, ethnic and national background, jobs, income, education, social status, sexuality, anything they can do to keep us fighting with each other, so that they can keep going to the bank!”—Comedian George Carlin

Recently was reminded of this army related quoting, which is also 2part:
Quote:
"I can't follow such an irresponsible officer. A soldier's job is to soldier. Not play hero." and "I cannot accept orders from an officer under a Court Martial." Sergeant RL-3
It should start some reaction in reasonable person mind..

Neil Bush, the son of President George H. W. Bush, who defrauded United States taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars in the savings and loan scam, and later peddled influence for the Chinese government, (who plied him with Chinese prostitutes) has formally endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president. You can’t make this stuff up.-Roger Stone

I consider the foundation of the [Federal] Constitution as laid on this ground: That "all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States or to the people." [10th Amendment] To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specifically drawn around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition.– Thomas Jefferson, Opinion on the Constitutionality of a National Bank [February 15, 1791]

The task must be to banish from mankind's thoughts the idea that anybody has the right to use force against righteousness, against justice, against mutual agreements.– Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

“We want no Gestapo or secret police. The FBI is tending in that direction. They are dabbling in sex-life scandals and plain blackmail. J. Edgar Hoover would give his right eye to take over, and all congressmen and senators are afraid of him.”—U.S. President Harry S. Truman

Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; ... The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.– Frederick Douglass
