Re: Best wishes to all my American brothers and sisters on this 4th July.
It is merely historical now. Last week, we took yet another step away from Independence to In Dependence! There is nothing to celebrate today; more so, it is a morose day of remorse upon further enslavement of the people to the government machine by the shackles of over-burdensome and over-reaching taxation.
“The essence of all slavery consists in taking the product of another's labor by force." -- Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
“Slavery is now no where more patiently endured, than in countries once inhabited by the zealots of liberty.” -- Samuel Johnson
“Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly prove a deliberate, systematic plan of reducing a people to slavery.” -- Thomas Jefferson
