How long do we have? About the time our original thirteen states adopted heir new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history
professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years
earlier: 'A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.'
'A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves --'generous gifts'-- from the public treasury.'
'From that moment on,-- the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the' most benefits' from the public
treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally' collapse' due to lose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a' dictatorship.''
'The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years.'
'During those 200 years,-- these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to greatest courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. from dependence back to bondage'
Professor Joseph Olsen of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts
concerning the 2000 Presidential election:
Number of States won by:
Gore: 19
Bush: 29
Square miles of land won by:
Gore: 580,000
Bush: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by:
Gore: 127 million
Bush: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Gore: 13.2
Bush: 2.1
Professor Olsen adds: 'In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country! Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in' government-owned tenements'-- and, living off various forms of ' government welfare...' Olsen believes the United States is now somewhere between the ' 'complacency and apathy' phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the 'governmental dependency' phase.
If Congress grants' amnesty-- and, citizenship' to twenty million criminal invaders called-' illegals'- and, they vote, then we can say goodbye
to the USA in fewer than five years ! !
If you are in favor of this,-- then, delete this message ! If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that ,--'apathy'-- is the greatest danger to our freedom.
Thanks for reading.
Make sure you write your congressmen and the President to Protect Our Borders
