"We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God." - James Madison
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religous people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." - Samuel Adams
"A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of the laborer the bread he has earned. This is the sum of good government." - Thomas Jefferson
Can anybody please tell me what about these words of wisdom from those who founded and pioneered our country is being heeded today?
Mirage, it has all been flushed down the toilet, and the Constitution has become the toilet paper.
