Darn, over 60 years and no better off.

Go back to some yesteryear of the 1950’s and hear Ronald Reagan:  “From hundreds of people in every part of the country, I heard complaints about how the ever-expanding federal government was encroaching on liberties we’d always taken for granted, …I heard it so often that after a while I became convinced that some of our fundamental freedoms were in jeopardy because of the emergence of a permanent government never envisioned buy the framers of the Constitution.”  Darn, over 60 years and no better off.
