Quote of the day:

"The political philosophy of America's Founding Fathers is so thoroughly buried under decades of statist misrepresentation on one side and empty lip-service on the other, that it has to be re-discovered, not ritualistically repeated." - Ayn Rand

    For re-discovery to happen, people would need to be able to think on their own to see how things have morphed into a shape never intended by the founders. Its certainly possible, but long odds.
