Do you think it is "Fair" for a family that has been working a piece of land for generations to grow food for the rest of the nation to be required to sell that land and close down their farm and move to the city because the government wants them to pay a 2 or 3 million dollar estate tax when their father dies?....They have no money, but the land is worth 5 million dollars and the government doesn't want the land, they want the money....If the family does not sell the land and move, the government will move them by force and if they resist, they will go to prison...............
Is that your idea of FAIR??!!.....Is that your idea of charity???  

Our Constitution is a document in which "We the People" tell the government what it is allowed to do. <a href="" rel="nofollow" cl="http://yedda.com/quotes/quotes/r/ronaldreag183966.html" class="comlink">Ronald Reagan</a> in his farewell speech 1989

It’s called communism, It’s called greed, It’s called government intrusion, It’s called Marxist, It’s called envy, It’s called unethical, but most of all, it seems to be called constitutional. What a crime of apathy. The good shepherd is dead and the sheep are lost !
