A number of people on this thread seem to be concerned about the Chinese wanting to strip us of our rights. The Chinese are NOT the main threat.
It's people like 0, Hillary Clinton, upChuck Schumer, Carolyn McCarthy, Jim Moran, Michael Bloomberg, etc. who are the immediate threat. And WHY are they a threat? It's because they actually have the power to impose unconstitutional laws on us. And yet even these wannabe tyrants are not the fundamental problem. They're just the symptom.
The real problem is the people who vote for them. Their supporters are not free. They're dependent on government in one fashion or another. They don't want to be free and they REALLY don't want the rest of us to be free. They are in many cases either direct parasites receiving wealth stolen from the productive citizens by their allies in government as welfare or indirect parasites - government employees, contractors, and specially protected industries like Archer Daniels Midlands and other accomplices in the ethanol fraud. Some statists simply substituted the worship of government for the worship of God in their lives. All of them have a vested interest in reducing freedom because after all they want nothing to interfere with the steady flow of cash from you pocket to theirs via the government and they want nothing to interfere with government's power over everyone's lives.
What you said.
