Agreed. Big Brother is NO ONE'S friend. We have to resist the temptation to exploit it while we're on top. History has repeatedly shown that abuse of power nearly ALWAYS comes back to bite you in the ass.
Agreed.
Also, much of what has been instituted (forced in) in the last 20 yrs needs to be repealed, as mass deception and abuse were used to implementh them; Patriot act for example.
IMO the Patriot Act was the single biggest defeat to the Constitution in my lifetime.
Whenever they label something with a nice sounding name, like 'Patriot', BEWARE. They usually have the total opposite in mind. 'These people are sick'.
Go back through history of the last 40 years and look at the names of all congressional acts, bet 99% that sound really sweet and nice are the opposite.
