Default Quote of the Day

"To summarize: It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem."

- Douglas Adams



Mark Twain said it best: “America is a nation without a distinct criminal class...with the possible exception of Congress."

My idea is that every specific body strives to become master over all space and to extend its force its will to power and to thrust back all that resists its extension. But it continually encounters similar efforts on the part of other bodies and ends by coming to an arrangement ("union") with those of them that are sufficiently related to it: thus they then conspire together for power. And the process goes on--

Freedom certainly doesn't feel free. Lady Liberty looks more and more like a battered housewife. And Democracy seems like a shopping spree.
