Liberty, Once Lost, Is Lost Forever
The title is a quote from a letter by John Adams to his wife Abigail and is so, so profound considering where Americans find themselves in 2024. As I pointed out in my recent AFP/CFP series “Then and Now,” for at least the last 90 years the liberties established in the United States Constitution have been slowly, almost in perceptively, slipping away. I would say that 75% of the activities the 2024 federal government is engaged in are not enumerated in the U.S. Constitution for the federal government.
