No matter how many times you have read this, it never hurts to read it again:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
I still believe our country can be salvaged. I still think we are in the "alter" stage, which is why I am a Libertarian. It is spelled out very clearly in the Declaration of Independence that the only purpose government serves is "to secure these rights" that we are born with which cannot be given away, nor taken away... only infringed by oppression.
Have you considered the many rights our government has transformed into privileges? The right to travel (driver's license), the right to property (building permit), the right to the pursuit of happiness (business license)... the list goes on.
You don't have to choose between tuberculosis and lung cancer, you can choose Good Health!
This country needs more than a facelift, or a tummy-tuck... more than an extreme makeover... Thomas Jefferson, the primary author of our constitution said "Every generation needs a new revolution."
Well, that time is overdue. It doesn't even have to be a bloody revolution. All you have to do is get rid of all of the current federal and state congress members simultaneously. Why waste your vote on a Democrat or Republican party candidate, when you already know if either gets elected, nothing will change! Vote for a candidate who will devote their time in office to doing what government is suppose to do: secure your rights.
Vote for a Libertarian! Do Libertarians have all the answers? No. Nobody does. But they have many sound solutions to the problems that our current politicians have created.
Simply put: smaller government, fewer taxes, more freedom. No matter who you vote for, it's time for a change. Don't waste another vote on a Republican who will do nothing but spend your money for 4 years, or a Democrat who will do nothing but spend your money for four years.
As you can see from the banner, I am a libertarian. Not sure of what the Libertarian Party stands for? You can read the issues on their homepage. To mention a few things: MUCH smaller federal government, fewer taxes, free trade, no censorship, privatization of most of the things the government screws up, removing restrictions on firearms, and removing the restrictions of select controlled substances.

But when should we transition from "alter" to "abolish" the government? I suppose the question comes down to:
How much freedom are you willing to give up before you fight for your rights? Because if you don't fight for your rights, who will?"The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it always to be kept alive." -Thomas Jefferson
