"If the day should ever arrive (which God forbid!) when the people of the different parts of our country shall allow their local affairs to be administered by prefects sent from Washington, and when the self-government of the states shall have been so far lost as that of the departments of France, or even so far as that of the counties of England, on that day the progressive political career of the American people will have come to an end, and the hopes that have been built upon it for the future happiness and prosperity of mankind will be wrecked forever."

When the people are forced to have their children attend schools that teach them that deviant sexual behavior is normal ... when the government runs cover for Wall Street and Bankers ... when the government steals pension funds and savings to prop up thieves ... when the government attempts to falsely create a catastrophe such as climate gate in order to further tax the people ... when the leaders of America use the world global governance in every speech, ... it's time for new leadership even if it requires open revolt.

Prior to the Federal Reserve Act, no political dreamer was ever wild enough to think of breaking down the lines which separate the States, and of compounding the American People into one common mass of slaves. Yet, this is exactly what has happened under Social Security, by creating a revenue base for the collection of interest on a fictitious national debt owed to the Federal Reserve banks, in other words, slavery to the national debt under the so-called 14th Amendment.
