"What we obtain too cheap..." Indeed. We have forgotten that liberty and freedom are not free, they are hard won and easily lost. We as a people, a nation have turned our backs on God (what ever your concept), freedom, earned pride and the things that made us a once great people, we have given it away, traded our birthright as Americans for what? The illusion of safety, the icy comfort of things, the illusion of ownership and property when in fact we are the slaves. God save our once great republic.
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
-- Thomas Jefferson
