Ben Franklin warned, America has "a republic, if you can keep it." If. He wasn't sure the great experiment would last. Americans "went out into the untamed wilderness and established towns and cities that really didn't have to lean on a central government in order to function.” says Linnea Lueken of Heartland Institute. That self-reliance made America successful. Unfortunately, today people say, “Problem? There ought to be a law!” But the more government “fixes” things, the more control politicians have over us, and the less freedom we have. That’s not what the founders wanted.
