Independence
Within the Declaration of Independence there is a list of abuses by the King of Great Britain. Here are a few of the injustices that are relevant today:
“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.”
“He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.”
“He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.”
“For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:”
“For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:”
Maybe we the people should consider renewing our independence from tyrannical rule, before we accumulate a list as condemnable as that in the United States Declaration of Independence.
