“I think a study of the map would be advisable for all of us because the Hitler method has always been aimed at a little move here and a little move there” – Franklin D. Roosevelt to reporters,
It is somewhat funny to hear FDR say that, because it is the same philosophy he was using with regard to accumulating power. A little more here and a little more there and pretty soon you go from a country with a Constitution that has enumerated the powers of the government to one where you have enumerated liberties.
So I think a study of the Constitution and historical documents would be advisable for all of us because the collectivist authoritarian method has always been aimed at a little move here and a little move there and pretty soon you are no longer in a free country, but a dictatorship, surveillance state.
