This Week’s Quote: “Supposedly, ‘We The People’ hire politicians, and they hire bureaucrats to make these decisions for us…Isn’t that exactly how we got stuck with an evil administration that, in 1941, enticed a fairly stupid enemy into providing us with an excuse to destroy them? Isn’t that how an equally evil regime faked an incident that led to 60,000 American deaths in Southeast Asia? And how about those ‘Weapons of Mass Destruction’ in Iraq? Representative republicanism is a complete and total hoax. A murderous hoax.” —L. Neil Smith

And that was one guy on the terrorist watch list, another guy with a sloppy Facebook trail, what are you talking about?’ We need that level of response.” —Bruce Schneier

This Week’s Quote: “Human history can be viewed as a slowly dawning awareness that we are members of a larger group. Initially our loyalties were to ourselves and our immediate family, next, to bands of wandering hunter-gatherers, then to tribes, small settlements, city-states, nations. We have broadened the circle of those we love…If we are to survive, our loyalties must be broadened further, to include the whole human community, the entire planet Earth. Many of those who run the nations will find this idea unpleasant. They will fear the loss of power.” —Carl Sagan
