Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning last November’s Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29
Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years. If you are in favor of this, then by all means, ignore this post. If you are not, then pass this post, and website along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

The wealthiest regions of the country like the northeastern and mid-Atlantic states and the west coast voted mostly for Obama. The federal government takes tax money from these regions and distributes some of it to the states that voted mostly for McCain. The wealthier more liberal parts of the country fund through their federal taxes the poorer, more conservative rural counties and small towns. I support this redistribution of wealth because rural and small town America should share in this country's wealth. Rural and small town conservative America benefits from liberal policies even though they tend to hate liberals. Ironic.
