H.L. Mencken is one of my favorites.

Isn't "Lysander Spooner" a great name. This quote is right on target.

Great quote and exactly right.

I suspect it means do your duty and let the chips fall...

Change the wording above from Marxist to Communist and you have it.

Damn Bruce, you are certainly long winded if nothing else. Global warming is a scam to load us up with more taxes.

I think that E Archer is right.

This is a very good web site. I start my day with coffee and Liberty Quotes.

In a socialist or fascist state, if you don't toe the party line , you've had it. And socialism and fascism are the same.

I agree with EGL,La.

"Government is a disease masquerading as its own cure". L.Neal Smith.

Heck, Even the majority doesn't rule in this country or Obama care would never have passed. It's well known that about 75% of the populace opposed it. No majority ruling here , not under King Obama.

E Archer, very true and well written. Your comment sums it up in one short sentence.

Ken Allyn summed it up accurately.

This quote is true, unfortunately.

Kevin, are you kidding. Your gibberish is nothing but socialism. "No one will have enough money to buy off government officials," that statement is a joke. And what is a "livable wage" and who decides this. A "livable wage" in San Francisco will be a lot different than one in Elbow Bend Arkansas. Your diatribe is nothing more than the nonsense of soaking the rich. The rich already pay about 80% of income taxes: they are already pretty well soaked. Your notion of equality will work in making us all equally poor.

Joe, Rochester , Your comment is right on target.

Interesting to note while the majority of Americans wanted no part of Obama care, we had it shoved down our throats anyway.

Change "poking" to meddling and you have it.

Perhaps Anonymous wants to be a "laborer to the State".

Warrdoc is correct.

Sorry that "Me Again"didn't get the irony and humor in this quote.

David, well stated. These pin heads who think Castro is just dandy need to read this. Never mind, they wouldn't believe it anyway.

Well said Matt.
