No doubt about it. No one with a sane mind could be so wrong as we see all around us today. They must be strong to to survive this:

And people comply to this voluntarily...

sigh....

WHAT BULLPUCKY Mr Sillik, You appear to express communist leanings. America was built on can-do...and what one man can-do can aid in another man to be able-to...and thus it goes on, privately via free exchange. We are headed to where our Founders hoped we would not go. Constant surveillance and the inability to do anything without permission from the 'leaders', who will certainly no longer be by, for, and of, 'the people'. In fact, America's sovereignty could be gone by the time anyone else reads this...and the UN could be in charge...

perhaps, but John Adams explains it is democracies which fail (isn't this why the Founders gave the USA a Republic?):
"I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. … Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy. It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty. When clear prospects are opened before vanity, pride, avarice, or ambition, for their easy gratification, it is hard for the most considerate philosophers and the most conscientious moralists to resist the temptation. Individuals have conquered themselves. Nations and large bodies of men, never.”" John Adams 2nd president of USA Source: Letter to Abigail Adams

Of course, our sword today is our arms which the administration wishes to remove, and the government has its hands so deep into our purses our unborn great grandchildren are sobbing for liberty which won't exist when they arrive. s

John Adams told us: There are 2 ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt. What is the picture developing in your mind?

AND the Federal Reserve is not federal at all...its a private bank with 'privileges'.
Archer got it right...and I don't see anyone getting out of debt.

As we may see in the touchable future....

Do your own research...and remember, everything that is shoved down your throat probably isn't good for you...and could either choke you or kill you. Thank God for good sense.

As we have learned, are learning, during the covid fiasco and the climate change hoax.

Why does the current POTUS immediately come to mind? said JB Wulff...in 2010

and now we ask the same question in 2023...

Because kids appear to prefer gaming on hand-helds there is a huge lack of curiousity left in a terribly large part of your youth...and it is spilling into their young adult life as well. A. Gram

Boy, I can't wait for you to get those answers, Mike.

A blessing we have Justice Thomas.

As we are witnessing today across the globe.

The battle to keep busybodies out of one's business is endless. Please, leave us alone, we can take care of ourelves.

...as always...the truth!

correct!

Offenses: taxing me to pay for an abortion, supporting those who cross the border illegally and then taxing the public to support them, taxing me to support a war between 2 nations that mean nothing to me is offensive...in fact it feels like extortion...I have nothing to say about it...but if the tax bill is ignored, my house will be taken from me...how is that a good thing for America?

in evidence...

I thought it important to mention that there were several more people in the US congress who were able to meet their Oath of Office obligations at the moment...I don't see it here so you must have found it too horrifying to print? It has hugely improved over 2015...a plus, don't you think that should be spoken of? We elect people and should expect them to perform at least at 90% efficiency.  There are people in Congress who work for America and Americans 0% of the time judging upon their adherence to the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. Yet, my letter is missing. Sigh...no wonder we fail. No one pays attention.

One more thing, wouldn't 87000 armed IRS agents qualify as a standing army?  They are going after everyone with FORCE if they are armed.

Take a look at what a republic actually is...it certainly is not mob rule.

Question, seek the truth, question again, and yet again...
