Ever read "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine? Published in 1776, this colorfully worded essay helped persuade the American colonists to become independent from the British crown. Take time to read it! Clicking here HERE will take you to it.Ever read "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau? Published in 1849, this essay helps define what some consider to be the proper role of the state vis-a-vis the individual. Take time to read it! Clicking HERE will take you to it.
In chapter two of his 1861 monograph titled Representative Government John Stuart Mill carefully elucidated the elements of "good government." This short chapter, like much of Mill's writings, is not an easy read. However, it comprises what I deem to be a fundamentally important essay for those concerned with good government. Clicking HERE will take you to this challenging chapter.
And, if you don't think that some things are going seriously awry, then you haven't checked out the "Injustice Line" yet! Do so now by clicking HERE. Attorney James Sterling Lawrence maintains that website and has written a very important article on "Finality" -- a horrific legal doctrine which is being used with increasing frequency in America. I urge everyone concerned about liberty, the criminal justice system, or just fundamental fairness to read this article, a copy of which is maintained on my webpage and which you can go to instantly by clicking HERE.The Constitution Society has a lot of excellent books and articles relating to liberty, the proper role of the government, etc., available to download for study. I consider it to have one of the most important websites in the world. And, yes, I really mean that. Check out the Society's "Liberty Library of Constitutional Classics" by clicking HERE.
