The topic of tyranny is too vast to cover in a short radio interview. And so we give two parts to this concern. George Washington warned in his Farewell Address, 1796: “Disorders and miseries … incline the minds of men to seek security … in the absolute power of an Individual .” Ben Franklin observed June 2, 1787: “There is scarce a king in a hundred who would not, if he could, follow the example of Pharaoh — get first all the people’s money, then all their lands, and then make them and their children servants forever … I am apprehensive that the government of the States may, in future times, end in a monarchy.” Should this be a concern for us today? | Link
