Taking freedom, comes at a high price for the free nation.

Look at what has transpired since WW-1



Interventionism takes so many of our individual freedoms, that the courts should be deciding.

Sooner or later we'll go broke implementing all the safeguards, designing databases to hold the information, hiring people to analyze all that information and then sit and wait for something to happen.

Every American will be on one list or another for something they did, bought or applied to.
All our digital pictures and fingerprints will be stored by DHS (both of mine are already in the system).

Drones will monitor us from the sky and computers/phones/electronics will collect our every movement.

All driven by fear, a fear that we helped to create.

Americans have turned apathetic and less informed and easily driven by emotion and promises from on high along with short memories.

With all the advances we have today and the availability of information I am astounded that so many are uninformed about what is going on around us.

I guess the push of social networking keeps them busy as opposed to being informed and educated.

How can one take people out of personal freedoms?

What the heck are you even talking about? Is this still English?

The r is so close to the t, and with most of the letters wore off my 10 year old keyboard, s*it happens.
