It is always the natural tendency of politicians and bureaucrats to seek to exploit temporary crisis, to expand permanently their powers over the public. "The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion." - Edmund Burke (1784) "The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedience, and by parts." - Edmund Burke "The greatest threats to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Justice Brandeis "Perhaps it is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad...." - James Madison to Thomas Jefferson, May 13, 1798.
