Ain't it funny how the men who formed our country knew best for it?
Jefferson again is correct yet he forgot one thing:
Monsters from the ID.
They forgot that with the increase in technologies the primitive urge to steal and pillage and murder are still part of human nature. Given a chance your fellow human under pressure will revert to his or her most base behavior.
People are cowardly until you back them up against a wall and like any other animal they'll fight to the last.
There are far, far too many people whose backs are being pushed to the wall and it's gonna blow soon, my bet is this summer or just around next Christmas. When pockets of bursts of violence occur the security of the Republic becomes compromised and the result is a degredation of our economies.
People come first in business, not the other way around.
