Thoughts, essays, and writings on Liberty. Written by the heirs of Patrick Henry.

“Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the greatest number. The latter are surely curmudgeons, suspicious and lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than the other sort.”     Robert A. Heinlein

Simon Says: A Fitting Monument

by Simon Jester

A day few years short,
A dollar few hundred million long,
The economy is in crisis,
But who’d call this wrong?

It’s a tribute to waste,
And avarice too,
But like it or not,
It was paid for by you.
