Lots of Americans have been warning anyone who will listen about the 
dangers of the centralization of power in the Fed.Gov, and the abuses 
that it would, and did, foster, since before the Constitution was 
ratified.

The Declaration of Independence was a unanimous document, the 
Constitution merely "majority". Right there, a step backwards.

Although somewhat hard to read, due to the change in language in two 
hundred years, the Anti-Federalist Papers still make fine reading for 
those that think "abuse of power" is a modern invention.

The Democrats have held a majority in Congress for 182 days. I stopped 
holding my breath a long time ago.

It doesn't take being an anarchist to know that there isn't any 
difference between "Republican" and "Democrat". It's all just 
carefully crafted false ideologies designed to "divide and conquer".

I wouldn't trust any professional politician to change my tire without 
trying to steal the lug nuts, regardless of party or nationality.

Daniel Webster - "In every generation, there are those who want to 
rule well - but they mean to rule. They promise to be good masters - 
but they mean to be masters."

Why is the RIAA still able to get away with their fear tactics? 
Because they know who to bribe. Centralized power creates a "target 
of opportunity" for corruption. Europe is learning this the hard way 
now, too.
