Nothing new under the sun.
I am not a spring chicken, and my grandfather used to warn us on a regular basis, "Don't trust the government".
We didn't take him seriously, but we should have.
You see, it is not the government's fault that we held it to our breast, knowing damn well it was a snake, and it bit us.
We have allowed ourselves to fall victim to the system and turned blind eyes and deaf ears on the corruption and greed. As long as we were happy and content it didn't matter.
We just forgot that chickens come home to roost.
In my opinon " tyrants" are now destroying America for some reason", but in all honesty, I don't know why.

When you realize that the Business Plot was used by FDR to push extremist agendas through and demonize an American Patriot who talked against the Socialist agenda, then you start to see how old this fight has been. Hell, Ben Franklin was even worried that we'd lose the Republic at the very beginning.
