BINGO!

Give the man a stick o' gum! It's called the path to a toltarian regime.

Step one - terrify the peasants.
Step two - keep them terrified.
Step three - tag them for their protection.
Step four - control every aspect of their lives.

This is very interesting:

about the time our original 13 states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:

?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 that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is 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 apathy;
7 ? From apathy to dependence;
8 ? From dependence back into bondage?

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election.

Population of counties won by ? Gore: 127 million; Bush: 143 Million
Square miles of land won by ? Gore: 580,000; Bush: 2,427,000
States won by ? Gore: 19; Bush: 29
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by Gore: 13.2; Bush: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: ?In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly land owned by taxpaying citizens of this great country.

Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare...?

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the ?complacency and apathy? phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the ?governmental dependency? phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

Pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

I found this on campus as UCSC this morning... although I agree with the final sentence, the rest I am holding my opinion on until I have a little more information and a better understanding. But just wanted to share...
