In the summer of 1932, a group of about 20,000 unemployed WW1 veterans, called the bonus army, in the admist of the Great Depression decided to march to Washington D.C.

They wanted a bonus that the Congress agreed to pay them by 1945.

Veterans and their families were suffering so they asked to receive the bonus early.

Some members of te Congress wanted to give the bonus to the veterans but President Hoover diagreed and he sent the troops against them.

Fighting begun and the troops used tear gas and tanks. They also burned the veteran's tents which they were using to settle.

Many were injured, and two veterans were killed. One family who were staying in their house afraid for their lives had tear gas thrown into their front yard.

They had to suffer even though they did not do anything.

Now… the social climates have changed, the government do know not to "cross" the line… They're like snakes.

I know I can't blame the entire face of the government just by actions of President Hoover, but it's not just this incident I am worried about.

In the protest of G20 which happened not too long ago. The police attacked the protesters who were excercising their 1st ammendment rights in Pittsburg. They had done nothing wrong…

 

I am still not sure what they had done wrong… we can excercise free speech all the time if it's not something that's criticizing the government, but if we do the ammendment "Magically" disappears…

I guess the government has the powers to bypass whatever law they make whenever they feel like it.

I am not sure if they harmed anyone in that protest but that's not what matters… What matters is they used force when we decided to use speech… I think their idea was to cut the weed out before it grows…

What some people doesn't get is that… There really isn't anything different about Monarchy and the Government today…

It's just a change of the name, and a few tweaks of the system to keep the people "just under that line" because even they're scared of riots and such… It' simple… they're using their brains… like a snake to do what they would like and get away with it… while keeping most of us under control.

Our relationship with the government is not needed.

"Society performs for itself almost everything that is ascribed to government" – Thomas Paine

Thomas Paine I mind you, is one of the founding fathers… Many of the founding fathers such as Thomas Jefferson.

When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty.–Thomas Jefferson

George Washington agreed to the principal that the government should never have as TOO much power.

For awhile now I tried to rationalize these feelings in fear of myself doing something drastic… but now I can't seem to sit still and watch anymore…

Our lives is on the line… and the future generations too is on the line.

We need to demand what we want now or else it'll be too late.

Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one. – Thomas Paine

We do not need government to survive in the 21st century… On the contrary, I believe that our economic climate will do better.

We have brains… if we need a change or a tweak in our societies we can gather and look for a solution.
 

We do not need a government that makes laws and does stuffs without our permission.

Decide to have a war without our permission… Make more enemies… We can't afford to have a government like this, especially when the nation's image is on the line.

It's a dangerous game were playing, we need to take charge of our lives NOW, or that time won't come for another 100s of years.

When their is a small spark in the fire, we need to grow it and make it big before it blows out.

We need to capitalize NOW, and we need to battle with our brains.

The government has been studying us… studying our actions, this and that… They're using their brains to battle us… They treat us like some sort of animals to be maintained… or enemies perhaps…

They're not looking for the good of the people, they're just looking out for themselves.

We need to think outside the box… Democrats, republicans WHO GIVES A FUCK. THAT DOES NOT REALLY MATTER!

eithere of the two DO NOT REALLY WORK.

Even if we abolish the government we can get on with our lives… It's a fresh start.

I always believed that the world was a white sheet of paper, designed for us humans to decorate it however we wanted.

Even if we have all these things cluttering the paper… We can erase them and start again… It REALLY IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

I advise you to read this excerpt from Thomas Paine

http://mises.org/story/2897

We'll govern ourselves, if theirs a broken bridge then we'll ask for small contributions from the people living their and fix it.

Their will no longer be tax money going to bad investments… We'll decide what to use it on.

We'll govern by towns to towns or cities to cities. We'll meet up with each other and decide on the laws intelligently by talking it out with each other.

Their will be no superfluous things that will come into play… We'll all look out for the good of ourselves… Some people can debate if they wanted… and we'll generally learn from the past as we go on.

If we need something we can make it then and their… This is totally possible in the 21st Century… Humans can adapt to just about anything.

Can we possibly suppose that if government had originated in a right principle, and had not an interest in pursuing a wrong one, that the world could have been in the wretched and quarrelsome condition we have seen it? What inducement has the farmer, while following the plow, to lay aside his peaceful pursuits and go to war with the farmer of another country? Or what inducement has the manufacturer? What is dominion to them or to any class of men in a nation? Does it add an acre to any man's estate, or raise its value? Are not conquest consequence? Though this reasoning may be good to a nation, it is not so to a government. War is the faro table of governments, and nations the dupes of the game. – Thomas Paine from that ^link up there. READ IT PLEASE!

"You cannot extend the mastery of the government over the daily working life of a people without at the same time making it the master of the people's souls and thoughts" – Herbert Hoover
