and symbolized the collapse of a system of government and a philosophy that simply could not sustain itself. Those brave people that protested and died in order to rid their lands of government imposed parasitic ideas of wealth distribution and alike are truly heroes.

They also knew that government is not the solution for all problems. They further knew that there would be a cycle of good times as well as lean and yet in spite this; they still yearned for a form of government that would free them.

Health care - Tea Party Proponent

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:02:12 -0500

It's been an interesting day with the Tea Party demonstrators at the capital regarding their opposition to the proposed health care reform bill - and the AMA and ARRP announcing their support of the proposed bill.
