“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
Samuel Adams said that and it still holds true today. If you're not going to stay and fight to help us fix it...get the hell out and don't come back.

Since you've decided to give up, I really don't care what excuse you have. I am a patriot to The People, the idea of America, not to a corrupt government. I hate the system as badly as anyone, but I intend to fix it, not run from it.
Please. GO. At least I can say I didn't run away from the problem.

I seem to remember that a lot of the founding fathers almost expected a revolution every 20 years or so?was years ago I heard it and i'm from where you don't listen too since 1776
The problem really is that theres monarchy sneaking in through the back door, the kennedys, the bush's, the clintion's all trying to make its way in via the side door even if they can't setup as king and queen they can keep popping new family members on the throne every 2 terms.
