Can Americans regain control of their country from the ever-expanding progressive state? Can our once-healthy free-market economy be taken back from its federal overseers?
Recent studies show that Americans are more dependent than ever on government - the biggest threat to their freedom of all. According to the Tax Foundation, 60% of households in America in 2004 received more in benefits and services from government than they paid in taxes. Under President Obama's massive spending hikes, that will soon rise to 70% or more.
For these folks to remove the yoke of government will take great willpower. Little by little, they are swapping their freedom for the comfort of government support and the top-down control that goes with it.
We find ourselves led by people who would weaken the Constitution's literal and ancient meaning in favor of a "living document" that guarantees literally nothing. As a result of the state's creeping hegemony, the republic we inherited and the unalienable rights we were guaranteed have never been more threatened."
