“The Communists’ chief purpose is to destroy every form of independence—independent work, independent action, independent property, independent thought, an independent mind, or an independent man. Conformity, alikeness, servility, submission and obedience are necessary to establish a Communist slave-state.” – Ayn Rand-

“Civilization has been a continuous struggle of the individual or groups of individuals against the State and even against society; that is, against the majority subdued and hypnotized by the State and State worship.” – Emma Goldman-

“The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.” – John Stuart Mill-

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." -Ronald Reagan-

@therighttothink50 i think that is why Ghwb's cia shot Regan, using that mentally handicap as a patsie. What GHWB did in his term was open the door for the UN to become communist. Is why things are so divided today worldwide.
