One Generation

Ronald Reagan said, "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

A generation is 40 years. Therefore we are in a constant cycle of replacing the powers that govern us all. If one uses historical facts, and logical thinking, it would seem that freedom is on the way out. At best, we are in the beginning of the end.

And for those that say, "It will never happen here."

Tell that to all the great nations that fell before us.
