“Our God given unalienable rights are given to us all as individuals. They tell us what we may do for ourselves, and they are the embodiment of liberty.
The so-called rights that government gives to some of us are parcelled out to select groups as classes. They tell us what one class of people may require another to do for them, and they are the very essence of slavery.”— Perri Nelson, February 9, 2010

Even a four year old understands

Even a four year old understands, at least in this cute video. Now if only we could teach this to a few people in their twenties and thirties.
I wonder sometimes about those people in their twenties and thirties. Conversations with one twenty-three year old leave me in near despair at the twisted concept of freedom and entitlement that he has. We may have to wait for the generation after that to see a return to the real principles of individual responsibility and liberty. That twenty-three year old's fifteen year old brother understands.
Putting the people back in charge of their government is something that seems to me to be a worthy goal. But as long as the politicians are free to run our lives in their arrogance it won’t happen. And as long as the people remain ignorant about the true meaning of individual liberty (and not mere license) it may well be a dangerous thing as well.
Teach your kids about our founding! Teach them the meaning of the words in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Teach them about our history — not the politically correct “history” they’re spoon fed. Maybe then it’ll be safe to put citizens back in charge.
