You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration."
-- James Allen

I shall not spend my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time."
-- Jack London

What Your
Government
Wants From
You... Should we give it to them?
"What luck for rulers that men do not think."
-- Adolf Hitler
"Those who vote decide NOTHING. Those who count the votes decide EVERYTHING."
-- Joseph Stalin
"Naturally, the common people don't want war , but after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."
-- Hermann Goering (Hitler's Reich Marshall)
Fear is a powerful tool for manipulation.
See it used everywhere!
What You
Should Give
Your Country... Demand your government adhere to these documents.
They are bound by them - unless we let them do otherwise
...we have...
- Patriot Act (2001)
- Military Commisions Act (2006)
They work for YOU as public servants (not the other way around).
What our President thinks of the Constitution:
"Stop throwing the Constitution in my face. It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!"
-- George W. Bush (yelled in a meeting late 2005)
Learn critical thinking! Question everything you're told.
Look at every action the government takes with two key questions:
-- For what purpose?
-- To whose benefit?
"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
-- Benjamin Franklin
"It is surely time for men to think for themselves, and to throw off the authority of names so artificially magnified."
-- Thomas Jefferson
"All men having power ought to be distrusted to a certain degree." --James Madison
"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty."
-- Thomas Jefferson"We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason."
--Edward R. Murrow
