TDIH: Jefferson on Liberty
"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniencies attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it."
Some food for thought for your Christmas Eve Eve. ππ
You have to wonder what Jefferson would make of modern-day America?!?
Dear regular readers: Full-fledged stories return on Christmas Sunday, with everyone's favorite Christmas history story. β€πΊπΈβ€
I am fairly certain that I know what Mr. Jefferson would be thinking. Dark thoughts concerning sympathizers versus patriots and perhaps thoughts of punishments for the selling out of a noble start for an anguishing ending. Dark thoughts indeed of people so easily relinquishing such a hard fought accomplishment.
Founder Jefferson would be appalled at what the Citizens have given up, Life- Liberty-Pursuit of Happiness, for the promise of an easier life under government control!
Thank you, Tara, and have a VERY Merry Christmas and a GREAT New Year!
