How police track your driving

98. Says YOU... with no support and a CLEAR agenda.

The Bill of Rights placing restrictions on our government was finally passed in 1791,
and anyone can see that those ideas are just too old to have any relevance for you either.


I still "cling" to the Traditional Democratic Party Values of FDR too, and these pre-date Orwell!

"We have come to a clear realization of the fact that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. “Necessitous men are not free men.” People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.

In our day these economic truths have become accepted as self-evident. We have accepted, so to speak, a second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity can be[font size=3]established for all—regardless of station, race, or creed.[/font]

Among these are:

*The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation;

*The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation;

*The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living;

*The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad;

*The right of every family to a decent home;

*The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;

*The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident, and unemployment;

*The right to a good education.

All of these rights spell security. And after this war is won we must be prepared to move forward, in the implementation of these rights, to new goals of human happiness and well-being.

America's own rightful place in the world depends in large part upon how fully these and similar rights have been carried into practice for all our citizens.
---FDR, 1944

By your rational, and that of the other "Centrist" Democrats,
these are outdated too.
Should we abandon them and embrace the New Lite Republicanism being preached by our Government?

I don't think so.
I won't go gently into THAT Good Night.


This is OLD too,
but is much more relevant than ANYTHING you have ever posted at DU....Says ME & Benjamin Franklin :
