“We are told over and over again that the terrorists aren’t upset with American foreign policy; it’s our freedoms they can’t stand. They want to destroy us because we’re free.

Is it our freedom to divert 47% of our national income to taxes collected by the federal, state, and local governments?” (written 05/02; posted 09/04/10)
