"Never give in. Never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

Sir Winston Churchill
(1874-1965) Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (1940-1945, 1951-1955)

    Though we may only be 300 we can do it. We can take the government down! It can be done! but it must be a consolidated effort - we must rally every village in America and start a plan to eliminate this DC canker/cancer. We must ALL not pay taxes, vote out all incumbents, withdraw our money from the major banks and the stock market, buy only local produce (no processed foods), stop going to WalMart and Malls, stop buying gasoline (use a bike, a scooter, or car pool), stop going on vacations, stop buying anything you don't need other than to survive, and lets all do this on July 1st 2010 spread the word - lets see if the people of America can put money where their mouth is.

    Wow. RBE, that is hardly progressive liberalism -- I love it! I'm with you 100%. I've got a few of your list already handled -- who says we can't go on vacation? Travel is very important for dispelling all sorts of prejudices/ignorance. In fact, try going through US Customs/Immigration and see what a police state the USSA has become. The real power is the power of the purse -- stop borrowing!! Live a cash economy -- cut up those credit cards. 'That man is happiest whose pleasures are cheap.' Take a stand and be brave -- I think you'll find that life still works fine without the aid of the state. Carpe diem.
