A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.

small thoughts

two things recently occured to me:

1) was obama's homebuyer tax credit a tacit admission that reagan's trickle-down economics works?

2) i don't understand what the big deal is about having your name on a terrorist watch list. apparently if your name is on it, you can still pack explosives and get on the plane while the tsa is busy scanning granny's shampoo bottle.
