  • Democracy

    In 1887 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 prior: "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 that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. >From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a soulless evil 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:
    From bondage to spiritual faith;
    From spiritual faith to great courage;
    From courage to liberty;
    From liberty to abundance;
    From abundance to complacency;
    From complacency to apathy;
    From apathy to dependence;
    From dependence back into bondage."
    The Obituary follows:

    It doesn't hurt to read this several times.
    Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in
    St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning
    The last Presidential election:

    Number of States won by: Obama: 19 Romney: 29
    Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000
    Romney: 2,427,000
    Population of counties won by: Obama:127million Romney:143 million
    Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
    Obama: 13.2 Romney: 2.1

    Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory
    Romney won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.

    Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low
    Income tenements and living off various forms of government
    Welfare..."

    Olson 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 illegal’s - and they vote - then we can say
    Goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years .

    If you are in favor of this, then by all means, 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..
    People without any brains do an awful lot of talking. Don't they?!
