“These are the times that try men’s souls.”This simple quotation from Founding Father Thomas Paine’s The Crisis not only describes the beginnings of the American Revolution, but also the life of Paine himself. Throughout most of his life, his writings inspired passion. He communicated the ideas of the Revolution to common farmers as easily as to intellectuals, creating prose that stirred the hearts of the fledgling United States.
Thomas Paine Spoke "Common Sense" To The Earliest Americans And Convinced Them To Overthrow The Government.
Thomas Paine is an incredible early American who not only helped write The Constitution Of The United States, but also wrote a forty page pamphlet called Common Sense, that single handedly inspired the tax-weary colonists to rise up and overthrow the British Government.
Interesting isn’t it? A forty page document was all it took because the ideas he communicated, as the title suggests, are so clear and unmistakably true that they compelled a downtrodden bunch of clodhoppers with makeshift weapons to get together, defeat the largest country on earth, and then go on to create the foundation on which the rest of us would build the greatest, most powerful country in the history of the world.
His simple point was that government should serve the people, not the other way around. That government was, in his words, a necessary evil….and that if a government was not serving the people, and was overstepping it’s bounds, then it was worse than no government at all.
Obama's So Called Stimulus Package Turns The United States Government Into A Giant Tax Devouring Monster That We Will Have A Hard Time Getting Off Our Backs.
So forty simple pages of Common Sense set us free to fight for our rights and create an incredible country of our own. Forty pages set us free, interestingly enough, and now it’s going to take one thousand pages to enslave us.
That’s right, from Common Sense to The Stimulus Package. We’ve gone from the sublime to the ridiculous. From a clear, concise, direct path to the future of a self governing people…with Common Sense…to a monstrous, incomprehensible albatross of a bill that is loaded with slime and pork and will serve to enslave generations with massive debt taken out to try and make sure that no one has to stand on their own two feet and fight for what they get anymore, because that’s not fair, we’ve got to figure out a way for the government to give it to them….with the so called Stimulus Package.
In fact, the current Administration has as its driving principal the belief that government exists to make things more fair for people who don’t try very hard. In any event, New Common Sense may become necessary at some point. And the American people, if they really want a government that represents them, may have to rethink our roots, where we came from and where we really want to go in the future.
I seriously doubt that the rugged independent spirit of this nation has been so subdued and corrupted, that we are now willing to make sure that everyone reaps the benefits of success, even if they don’t do squat consistent with achieving it.
We salute Thomas Paine, and the clear, concise thinking that started this country…and the love for freedom that inspired the founding of The United States of America. And we urge you to get in touch more than ever with our founding principals and rights, as the socialist regime in The White House may threaten to eradicate them.
At Rubber Stamp Champ, we believe in exercising our rights. As I am right now exercising my right to free speech. Use it or lose it may never be a more apt assessment of where we stand with our rights, right now. There’s a socialist, or worse in the White House. He’s negotiating with terrorists and and taxing you whether you like it or not. We have to be pay attention, and strengthen our rights now by exercising them. In the meantime, if you really need rubber stamps….especially custom made rubber stamps, customized self inking rubber stamps, custom ink stamps, address stamps, return address stamps, pre inked stamps,
date stamps, permanent ink stamps, UV inks, specialty inks and pads, notary supplies and a whole lot more in terms of marking devices and replacement pads, you’re far better off shopping at the Rubber Stamp Champ at www.RubberStampChamp.com.
For example….most places these days, you wind up paying more than $20 for a custom made Ideal 50. You walk into an office supply store and order from a catalog and it’s going to cost you upwards of $25 to get a customized ideal 50 and then you’re going to wind up waiting a good three weeks before you get the stamp in your hands.
We do the same stamp, the same Ideal 50, the same custom self inking rubber stamp….only here’s the difference…we do it complete for $6.25….and we do it in one day. That’s the way it is, everyday online at The Rubber Stamp Champ. If you buy rubber stamps at all, get them from The Champ. We’re sure you’ll love our great attitude toward customer service and our Knockout Prices!
stamping kits are not the typical thing you can find at the office supply store, but then again, office supply stores aren’t very good at providing rubber stamps. That’s because, by and large, rubber stamps are a custom item and office supply stores do a much better job of non-custom items like rulers and chairs.
