"I know not what treason is, if sapping and betraying the liberties of a people be not treason." ~ Cato
Interrogated by an Agent of the State
Governments exist through the consent of the governed. Something that is always true. Consider this quote from Ludwig von Mises, "Only a group that can count on the consent of the governed can establish a lasting regime. Whoever wants to see the world governed according to his own ideas must strive for domination over men’s minds. It is impossible, in the long run, to subject men against their will to a regime that they reject."
