Issue Idea - On Arrogant Officials Regarding Us as Their Ignorant Servants

Local policy makers, instead of performing public service, arrogate to themselves the role of omniscient landlord: they know so much more about homes, business, families, education, finance, etc., that they insist on being a party to most of your personal affairs, to the point of penalizing you for failing to approach them like docile children for their blessing on your ideas (and of course failing to offer your tribute to them in the form of fees and/or higher property taxes).

Many have complained about the Catholic Church being an onerous governing influence in the "dark" ages. They never dreamed of having the complete control and assumed authority over their voluntary members that local and state governments now hold over us citizens, in this "land of the free, home of the brave." Our so-called "public servants" threaten us and manipulate us into accepting a "land of the enslaved, home of the weak, timid, ignorant, and apathetic."

As stated by The Power Hour radio program (on GCN), "We must be brave, or be a slave!"
