Who thought the government was overstepping its' power when President Bush passed the Patriot Act? Why has the act being accepted indefinitely not been opposed? Why are people not concerned with the increase in governmental control and freedoms being administrated away from the people? Is everyone okay with the freedom and power grab represented by this bit of executive order http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/16/executive-order-national-defense-resources-preparedness ? Are we a country where the President gets to dictate how we use our resources? Does the President have the power to control private industry and private property of free people?

None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are occupying parks and government buildings demanding government pass laws to take property from others because they think it will help them to be free... toonces
