“Humanity’s most valuable assets have been the non-conformists. Were it not for the non-conformists, he who refuses to be satisfied to go along with the continuance of things as they are, and insists upon attempting to find new ways of bettering things, the world would have known little progress, indeed.”
~ Josiah William Gitt
“Our, the American People’s” Congressional legislators, some of them, at least, are calling on GOP Congressional legislators to confirm President-to-be Donald J. Trump will not be able to run for a third term. So, report media covering Congressional legislators so demanding. Said Congressional legislators making said demand make it clear they consider Constitutionality of no bona fide authority.
“I often wonder whether we do not rest our hopes too much upon constitutions, upon law and upon courts. These are false hopes, believe me, these are false hopes. Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it; no constitution, no law, no court can even do much to help it. While it lies there it needs no constitution, no law, no courts to save it.”
~ Learned Hand
“We, the American People,” as a sovereign citizenry, are either final arbiters of America’s commonwealth, federal (U.S./National), and state Constitutions, or, we are not. If we, as a sovereign citizenry, may not elect our representatives as we choose, Constitutionality notwithstanding, we are not a sovereign citizenry, and, therefore, are subject to virtually any law, tax, rule of government whim.
“It is not the responsibility of the government or the legal system to protect a citizen from himself.”
~ Justice Casey Percell
Legislators Strive Tirelessly And Relentlessly to make their personal attitudes, values, and beliefs (PAVB) lawfully compulsory and enforced by selective, arbitrary, and discriminatory legislation, taxation, and regulation (SADLT&R). Legislators interpret Constitutional articulation to fit their PAVB. Legislators, by SADLT&R, relegate as subordinate PAVB held by “Us, the American People.”
“People fear witches, and burn women.”
~ Louis Brandeis
Whether An American President can be President more than twice is for American voters to decide. No one else. For America’s legislators to call for America’s legislators to affirm a President may only be elected twice is to declare America’s voters may not write in representatives of their choice as often as they choose. Choose. We would be astute to let legislators know it is voter choice, not theirs. Not.
“The Declaration [of Independence], after all, catalogued the assaults on our freedoms committed by Britain’s King George III. What has been built up over the last two and a quarter centuries is a structure that dwarfs George III’s regime.”
~ K.E. Grubbs, Jr.
People Intending To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to enact, impose, or increase taxes without securing a majority vote approval in all jurisdictions affected. They protect against property confiscation.
“Life without liberty is like a body without spirit.”
~ Kahlil Gibran

“No tendency is quite so strong in human nature as the desire to lay down rules of conduct for other people.”

“The trouble with most folks isn’t so much their ignorance, as knowing so many things that ain’t so.”
~ Josh Billings
“Our, the American People’s media has an article floating around posing a, no doubt, controversial question asking if America’s public schools ought teach religion. Article question is followed by two more wondering if religious literacy is a problem, and, if religious literacy is a problem, how such literacy – or, illiteracy – ought be fixed. Ignorance a formidable enemy, awareness formidable antidote.
“The cry of the soul is for freedom. It longs for liberty, from the date of its first conscious moments.”
~ Josiah Gilbert Holland
“We, the American People” antsy about religion in America’s public schools could lean conveniently – and, heavily – on interpretation of America’s 1st Amendment. Lesser purists would likely say disallowing religious subjects in public schools would be closed-minded, stifle intellectual inquiry. We’d by idealist fools to think there’d be a reasoned consensus. Too much fodder for who’s right.
“The cry of the soul is for freedom. It longs for liberty, from the date of its first conscious moments.”
~ Josiah Gilbert Holland
It Wouldn’t Take Much Of A Look at recorded history to get a read on roots of civilization’s ambivalence toward difference, and how such ambivalence has lead – and, is leading – to people’s hostility toward people. More than a few times when might is used to decide who’s right. Aggressors and they resisting aggression have figured it’s smart to find out as much as you can about your enemy.
“Perfect love holds the secret of the world’s perfect liberty.”
~ Josiah Gilbert Holland
There Is Likely To Be A Frosty Day in Hell when religion, practiced myopically, doesn’t prompt people of Faith to get tight-jawed about people of Faith. It’s not exactly ancient history showing “Us, the American People” fissures in congregational notions of one’s Faith’s canons, not resolved and reconciled, bring about irreconcilable congregational splits. Similar animosity likely in public schools.
“Liberty, then, is the sovereignty of the individual, and never shall man know liberty until each and every individual is acknowledged to be the only legitimate sovereign of his or her person, time, and property, each living and acting at his own cost.”
~ Josiah Warren
People Bent On Living In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to enter into defined-benefit contracts with collective bargaining units to confiscate American’s property. They exercise citizen sovereignty to protect their property.

“Politicians never accuse you of ‘greed’ for wanting other people’s money – only for wanting to keep your own money.”

“People who create things nowadays can expect to be prosecuted by highly moralistic people who are incapable of creating anything. There is no way to measure the chilling effect on innovation that results from the threats of taxation, regulation and prosecution against anything that succeeds. We’ll never know how many ideas our government has aborted in the name protecting us.”
~ Joseph Sobran
“We, the American People” are told, on a regular basis, how there’s a fiscal crisis coming, and people with property (wealth) will have to make sacrifices to see America through it. Oft as not, we are told we who are billionaires will have to bear brunt of financial burden to save America from financial extinction. Why we are where we are, if we look through clear lenses, find deficit spending is culprit.
“‘Need’ now means wanting someone else’s money. ‘Greed’ means wanting to keep your own. ‘Compassion’ is when a politician arranges the transfer.”
~ Joseph Sobran
“Our, the American People’s” financial spendthrifts have had a nasty habit – for a long, long time – of incurring debts ordinary people, including ordinary billionaires, get to bail out through property (wealth) confiscation and choice (Liberty) restriction. Our little minds are pricked by celebrity testaments to prepare our psyches to forego resistance, smile, and figure it’s our due to pay up. Duty.
“Since outright slavery has been discredited, ‘democracy’ is the only remaining rationale for state compulsion that most people will accept.”
~ Joseph Sobran
For Reasons Not Well Disseminated, – possibly because those reasons are not well understood by students of grey matter convolutions, there is not overwhelming uproar from “Us, the American People” over having to surrender our property (wealth) and limit our choice (Liberty) to pay government bills. Might be because we’d be embarrassed to admit America’s fiscal crises are our doing.
“Democracy has proved only that the best way to gain power over people is to assure the people that they are ruling themselves. Once they believe that, they make wonderfully submissive slaves.”
~ Joseph Sobran
We Do Not Have To Let America‘s legislators run up debt stemming from rampant deficit spending. Our legislators can not pass one law, levy one tax, impose one regulation if we stand up, look legislators in their grubby eyes, and tell them to stop unnecessary spending immediately. Or, we will descend on their legislature halls, pitchforks and long guns in hand, and escort them to exits, wind, rain, or snow.
“Politicians never accuse you of ‘greed’ for wanting other people’s money—only for wanting to keep your own money.”
~ Joseph Sobran
People Adamant To Live In Liberty do not allow legislators – or other public officials within These United States of America, to give quarter to, offer sanctuary to, or negotiate with terrorists. They refuse to live in fear or at risk brought on by “State” policy.
“Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.”
