"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not."

"If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the General Welfare, the Government is no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one, subject to particular exceptions."

“An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, a power to destroy; because there is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation.”

"The foundation of our national policy will be laid in the pure and immutable principles of private morality; the propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained..."

"With respect to the words general welfare, I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators."

"If Congress can employ money indefinitely to the general welfare... they may appoint teachers in every state... The powers of Congress would subvert the very foundation, the very nature of the limited government established by the people of America."

"A departure from principle becomes a precedent for a second; that second for a third; and so on, till the bulk of society is reduced to mere automatons of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering… And the fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression."

Thomas Jefferson

My article on the Supreme Court ruling below upholds these principles.  We now have an unlimited government with unlimited power to tax.  Thank you Supreme Court.  Thank you Progressives.  Thanks to all who have compromised or abandoned principles.  Our Constitutional Republic appears doomed unless the people change themselves, awaken, and demand principled and virtuous candidates.

1. You cannot legislate  the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what
they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Can you think of any evidence to refute the Truth of these statements?

This is simply a reminder of the ten fundamental political planks of the communist manifesto.  You will recognize many in the laws, regulations, tax structures, and policies of our own government.  Always be alert to Progressive actions to move the country forward toward completion of these planks.

The Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto:
 
1.   Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.
2.   A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
3.   Abolition of all right of inheritance.
4.   Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
5.   Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive
      monopoly.
6.   Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State.
7.   Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-
      lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
8.   Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
9.   Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and
      country, by a more equitable distribution of the population over the country.
10. Free education for all children in public schools.  Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form.
      Combination of education with industrial production.

John F. Kennedy held a dinner in the  white House for a group of the brightest minds in the nation at that time.  He made this statement:
 
“This is perhaps the assembly of the most intelligence ever to gather at one time in the White House with the exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.”

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our  liberties than standing armies.  If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

Abolish the Fed!

 
 
Quote for the day:  "If government truly  wishes to play God in our lives, they should do as He did – give us Life and Liberty, and leave the rest to us."
