Quote of the Week – Samuel Adams
March 17, 2021
Obviously Samuel Adams could not foresee the future. There has been quite a procession of these people for a long time and nothing has been done about them. It happens on the local, state and national level. You can see them all thru our government. If you read the Bible, you can almost put names on the characters you encounter. The attitude of the Levites, Pharisees, Sadducees and others. The common man was looked down on by these three classes. The Sadducees held most seats in the Sanhedrin and ruled over the common man. Today, we have repeat of what we fought a revolution to rid ourselves of. We fought to rid ourselves of a ruling class of elites, or aristocracy who looked down on the common man. We fought for freedom from unfair taxation and regulation. However, history continues to repeat itself. We have allowed an aristocracy to implant itself here in our country. They hold most of the seats in our government and rule over us with laws and regulations that steal our freedom and tax us into oblivion. It was true in the Bible, it was true before the Revolution, it was true before our Civil War and it is true today. And don’t blame it on the Democrats nor the Republicans. The are both equally guilty.
Very well said.
Nailed it
Last cruise we went on was great, especially when we used the ship as our own all inclusive resort and not worrying about planning off ship trips. Far less stress, more time to just relax. We are looking at a couple of revolvers to add to the locker this year, might be the RIA m200 and 206 38spl snubs just due to cost. I’ve shot the 206 already and was acceptable for what it’s intended use is for.
That time draws near with a shocking pace
It does Paul….it really does.
