> "Firstly, the size of a country causes a corresponding decrease of the political importance allotted to each individual. The most obscure republican of Sparta or Rome had power. The same is not true of the simple citizen of Britain or of the United States. His personal influence is an imperceptible part of the social will that impresses on the government its direction." –Benjamin Constant, *On the Liberty of the Ancients Compared with that of the Moderns* (1819) #GovtIsTheProblem #Voluntarism #EndTheState

> "We’re living in the Fourth American Republic. Those who speak of conserving the work of β€œthe founding fathers” or β€œthe American experiment” are living in a republic of the imagination alone. Many conservatives like to quote Benjamin Franklin who, upon exiting the 1787 constitution convention allegedly said that the convention had created _β€œa republic, if you can keep it.” Well, they didn’t β€œkeep it.”_ It disappeared in the nineteenth century, and what we have today is something else altogether" (emphasis added). https://mises.org/mises-wire/we-are-living-fourth-american-republic#:~:text=We%E2%80%99re%20living%20in,something%20else%20altogether The US #GovtIsTheProblem

The Roman Emperor at the time of Christ, Tiberius, was a literal pedophile (if we can believe Suetonius' accounts about his "minnows"), and in 40 years time Rome would destroy Jerusalem and the Jewish State. View quoted note β†’

Credit cards allow you to create a virtual credit card number for your online safety that protects your actual credit card number. I wonder if there's a way to create a virtual nsec that could be used instead of your actual nsec, to keep it safe...? πŸ€” image #asknostr #devs #askdevs #nostr

So the banksters enslaved and destroyed the United States. They also used the U.S. military as their enforcement arm (see Smedley Butler, "War is a Racket"), and eventually created the CIA to do it more covertly. View quoted note β†’ The US #GovtIsTheProblem
