THIS
IS SAD---- BUT THINK ABOUT IT AFTER YOU READ IT
THEN
READ IT AGAIN AND FORWARD IT, PLEASE!
In 1887
Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the
University of
Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the
Athenian
Republic some 2,000 years prior: "A democracy is always
Temporary in
nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent
Form of
government. A democracy will continue to exist up until
The time that
voters discover that they can vote themselves generous
Gifts from the
public treasury. From that moment on, the majority
Always votes
for the candidates who promise the most benefits from
The public
treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally
Collapse over
loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a
Dictatorship."
The average age
of the world's greatest civilizations from the
Beginning of
history, has been about 200 years. During those 200
Years, these
nations always progressed through the following sequence:
From bondage to
spiritual faith;
From spiritual
faith to great courage;
From courage to
liberty;
From liberty to
abundance;
From abundance
to complacency;
From
complacency to apathy;
From apathy to
dependence;
From dependence
back into bondage."

States of America", Born 1776, Died 2016
It doesn't hurt
to read this several times.
Professor
Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in
St. Paul,
Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning
The last
Presidential election:
Number of
States won by: Obama:
19
Romney: 29
Square miles of
land won by: Obama: 580,000
Romney: 2,427,000
Population of
counties won by: Obama: 127 million Romney: 143 million
Murder rate per
100,000 residents in counties won
by: Obama: 13.2 Romney: 2.1
Professor Olson
adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory
Romney won was
mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Obama territory
mostly encompassed those citizens living in low
income
tenements and living off various forms of government
welfare..."
Olson believes
the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency
and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of
Democracy, with
some forty percent of the nation's population
Already having
reached the "governmental dependency" phase..
If Congress
grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million
Criminal
invaders called illegal’s - and they vote - then we can say
Goodbye to the
USA in fewer than five years.
If
you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If
you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how
much
is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our
freedom..
