There has always been, and there is now, a profound conflict of interest between the people and the government of the United States.

Representative government is artifice, a political myth, designed to conceal from the masses the dominance of a self-selected, self-perpetuating, and self-serving traditional ruling class.

When people don't understand that the government doesn't have their interests in mind, they're more susceptible to go to war.

I suggest that if you know history, then you might not be so easily fooled by the government when it tells you you must go to war for this or that reason -that history is a protective armor against being misled.

Protest beyond the law is not a departure from democracy; it is absolutely essential to it.
