ORIGINAL: SummerWind .....unfortunately it's for 500,000 people.......The government in NJ "creates" jobs every day. In fact many of our county and state officials have multipe jobs with multiple pensions and free 100% health care for life. When we rely on the government to create our jobs it then means they also have the power to take them away. We become bitches to a bloated, corrupt beauracratic system of patronage. About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier: ‘A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.' 'A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.' 'From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.' 'The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years' 'During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence: 1. From bondage to spiritual faith; 2. From spiritual faith to great courage; 3. From courage to liberty; 4. From liberty to abundance; 5. From abundance to complacency; 6. From complacency to apathy; 7. From apathy to dependence; 8. From dependence back into bondage'  Change this line: From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.' to From that moment on, the majority's vote will be ignored, the party in power will manipulate the electoral college in favor of the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury for their corporate constituents, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.' And you got it!
