May God have mercy on "We the People".....

If our Founding Fathers could send us a 'tweet', or a text, or post on our walls.....

@JohnAdams1814: Abigail-But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever.
@BenFrank1768: Be in general virtuous, and you will be happy.
@TJefferson1823: A rigid economy of the public contributions and absolute interdiction of all useless expenses will go far towards keeping the government honest and unoppressive.

George Washington-Alexander Hamilton
But if we are to be told by a foreign Power...what we shall do, and what we shall not do, we have Independence yet to seek, and have contended hitherto for very little.

John Adams-Thomas Jefferson
As long as Property exists, it will accumulate in Individuals and Families. As long as Marriage exists, Knowledge, Property, and Influence will accumulate in Families.

@BenFrank1758: He that goes a borrowing goes a sorrowing.
@TJefferson1789: But with respect to future debt; would it not be wise and just for that nation to declare in the constituition they are forming that neither the legislature, nor the nation itself can validly contract more debt, than they may pay within their own age, or within the term of 19 years.
@BenFrank1743: How many observe Christ's birth-day! How few, his precepts! O! 'tis easier to keep Holidays than Commandments.

@JohnAdams1770:Human government is more or less perfect as it approaches nearer or diverges farther from the imitation of this perfect plan of divine and moral government.


May God have mercy on "We the People" for what we've done with the nation our Fathers died for.
