The experiment that put individuals and individual liberty above government, mob rule and collectivism was unparalleled in human history. Government needs to be put back in its place of limited scope and size.

Most important to me is to see a society that permits each individual to be the best human being they can be, without interference, regulation or exploitation on the part of elitists who think they know better how people should live. All levels of government should strive to permit individuals to succeed in the manner that is dictated by their individual gifts and talents.

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are sorely missing from a society where the masses are brainwashed into capitulation and subservience to a master that places no value in the individual and views people as merely part of a collective to be molded by public policy and political correctness.

Despotism, dictatorial and totalitarianism resulting in exploitation and oppression are the norm of human existence. The very few and limited examples in history where individuals had unfettered freedom to exercise their skills, gifts and talents were ultimately crushed as a result of the natural tendency toward collectivism and a lack of vigilance in the defense of such individual rights.

America was founded on the belief that individual rights come not from governments but from a higher authority. The People have only themselves to blame for surrendering their individual sovereignty for the empty promise of institutions that promise to provide for their every need.

It is imperative that people wake up and realize that they are being exploited by those who would concentrate power in so few over so many.
