<"A DEMOCRACY IS DOOMED ONCE ITS CITIZENS LEARN THAT THEY CAN LEGALLY VOTE THEMSELVES MONEY FROM THE NATION'S TREASURY "> Democracy was doomed when the South lost the right to secede during the war of northern aggression. During that period, the nascent Federal government consolidated its power, quashed states rights, created a central bank, and changed the U.S. back to the normal Spoils-based government that the rest of the world already had.

"Republicans bankrupt the nation and fill the pockets of the corporations & wealthy with tax money" "Democrats bankrupt the nation and fill the pockets of the poor & dispossessed with tax money" "A DEMOCRACY IS DOOMED ONCE ITS CITIZENS LEARN THAT THEY CAN LEGALLY VOTE THEMSELVES MONEY FROM THE NATION'S TREASURY " Yup! Too many hands in the cookie jar usually ruins a good thing <g/ng> :-\|
