QUOTE WORTH CONSIDERING

"No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffusd and Virtue is preservd. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauchd in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders." --Samuel Adams, letter to James Warren, 1775

Highly relevant to today's society I'd say. We are driving ourselves into the ground morally, spiritually, and financially. Once we have thoroughly f'ed things up, all that remains is for some other country to step right in and take over. Sadly, I think old Sam had it dead on.
