The government is the potent omnipresent teacher.
For good or ill it teaches the whole people by its example.
Crime is contagious.
If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law;
it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.
To declare that the end justifies the means --
to declare that the government may commit crimes
-- would bring terrible retribution

Justice Louis D. Brandeis

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A general dissolution of the principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy.... While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but once they lose their virtue, they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.... If virtue and knowledge are diffused among the people, they will never be enslaved. This will be their great security.

John Adams

These Two Quotes from Famous Americans
Define American Problems Today

Comment by Larry Ross, November 24, 2005

America has become involved in many crimes and great hypocrisy, while the President - George Bush - claims Christian virtue and direction from God. It is diabolically evil and rapidly becoming more so as new inferior people of like mind are appointed by Bush to top positions.

American liberties are being willingly overthrown whenever Bush throws up the 'terrorist' enemy, as John Adams foresaw. The Government commits crimes - and is the omniscient teacher - as Justice Brandeis says, as the retribution may be terrible as he predicts.
