Of all the enemies to public liberty... |
|
"Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes … known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.… No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare." James Madison 1795
With a defense budget that comprises nearly 1/2 the US federal budget, do you feel safe yet?
