"TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES,
TO HAVE THEM DRIVEN BEFORE YOU,

Crap,
The first thing that came to my mind was "KROM"...
Your caricature was too good! I'll come up with something else.

How prophetic, the middle class is being 'liberated' into poverty by 21st Century socialists.

Love the tie. Alas, barbarians don't take prisoners.

“The fact is that liberty, in any true sense, is a concept that lies quite beyond the reach of the inferior man’s mind. He can imagine and even esteem, in his way, certain false forms of liberty—for example, the right to choose between two political mountebanks, and to yell for the more obviously dishonest—but the reality is incomprehensible to him. And no wonder, for genuine liberty demands of its votaries a quality he lacks completely, and that is courage. The man who loves it must be willing to fight for it; blood, said Jefferson, is its natural manure. More, he must be able to endure it—an even more arduous business. Liberty means self-reliance, it means resolution, it means enterprise, it means the capacity for doing without…” – H. L. Mencken
While the bulk of the middle class wasn't aware of it, they consented to their slavery in their willingness to be ignorant of government, their blind faith in it, & in the subsequent lack of understanding of how liberty has to be maintained.
So--in essence--over time the middle class indentured itself to the barbarian.

There are days I just want to hide from the slavery to come and the barbarians in DC, but unfortunately, I have to play their game.
There are no places to flee and
there are no choices that lead to freedom, just Tweedle-dees in power who act like jack-booted thugs and the Tweedle-dums seeking power that wish to enslave us, but to do so at a slower pace.

DR. BOB:
Very astute observation.
I had to check the locks to make sure you didn't break into my cave & read my notes.
However, we're not playing the game. We're merely the playing pieces.
