TRUST NO ONE WITH POWER: Forgotten and Ignored Warnings from the Founders

TRUST NO ONE WITH POWER: Forgotten and Ignored Warnings from the Founders

Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description

The Founders warned us – over and over again – that power always expands, no matter who holds it. So, you can’t trust anyone with power, no matter how much you like them or what they do, because that same power will eventually fall into the hands of someone hell-bent on destroying your liberty. In this episode, you’ll learn some of the most powerful warnings from the Founders about the dangers of power – warnings we can’t afford to ignore any longer.
