"The Framers had a deathly fear of federal government abuse. They saw state sovereignty as a protection. That's why they gave us the Ninth and 10th Amendments. They saw secession as the ultimate protection against Washington tyranny." Walter Williams 

"History has well substantiated the fact that, under
the right conditions, fallen and foolish man has
always given up independence and freedom, for even the
illusion of peace and security. 

If society's great international architects can manufacture the precise conditions as in their adventures in Europe, all vestiges of freedom will fall in America". 
- Samuel L. Webster, 1935
