The federal government has abused the rights of citizens and has thus abused the power that was granted to them by the citizens through the Constitution. If any government should be come so powerful, the citizens should hold them accountable and rise up to reform the policy. Unlawful imprisonment, The Patriot Act (reaffirmed and signed in 2011 by Obama), and severe economic collapse area only a few areas of concern. We have lost sight of what our forefathers established and need to get back to our basic principles.
"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of experienced patriots to prevent its ruin." Samuel Adams
