"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward."

We have been apeasing the colectavists for years. They keep taking. We keep stepping back. They ask for a foot and in the name of working together we give them an inch. We compramise again and we slide closer to tyrany.
We need to ask for a yards and make them give up feet. We need them to compromise and let our nation slide closer to liberty.
Who is the man who will stand on top ogf the hill and shout "Liberty. Liberty. Cut the power and size of the Federal Government in half."
Men and women go to Washington (at our request)and they only take from us. They don't go to serve. They will only pass laws that create programs that we have to fund. We work and and they skim off more of our paychecks. They only enslave.
The back of the Federal Government has to be broken. I have two ideas.
1. Stop sending them money. No money no power.
2. Pitition the states that we live in. If our state governments won't intercede, then we cut off their funding to.
How do we keep the "entitlement crowd" from voting away our freedoms?
