I read somewhere that America is not a country, it's an idea, that a free people can govern themselves to better effect than rulers or elites or bureaucrats, tyrants and cabals.
Sometimes I wonder (knowing that I am a benevolent despot) if we wouldn't be better off with a revolution* or two but as long as more folks are trying to get in than get out, I'll bow to the will of the people.
This being the Memorial Day weekend:
"To see men without clothes to cover their nakedness, without blankets to lie upon, without shoes ... without a house or hut to cover them until those could be built, and submitting without a murmur, is a proof of patience and obedience which, in my opinion, can scarcely be paralleled."
