The Rebellious History of America, Part 1: Rebellions During the Colonial Era

Most who are familiar with American history know that America was born of a rebellious spirit that led to a successful revolution against Great Britain.  They are also aware that less than eighty years after American independence was recognized by the Treaty of Paris, a bloody struggle known as the War Between the States in the South and the American Civil War in other venues changed the shape of the nation.  However, with the exceptions of the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party, which were precursors to the Revolution, many are unaware of the many rebellions that have occurred in America.  

The Needs of Society Produce Slavery

Adolf Hitler is credited with saying: "Society's needs come before the individual's needs." Over the course of the Twentieth Century, the needs of our society insatiably increased well beyond those observed by Federal and state constitutions. To fulfill these needs, myriad agencies, leviathan bureaucracy, intrusive regulations, and wasteful entitlement programs have been introduced which have dramatically extended the power and authority of government at all levels while steadily diminishing the scope of individual liberty originally earned by the blood of revolutionary citizens.
