The Patriot Post's mission is to advocate for Essential Liberty, the restoration of constitutional limits on government and the judiciary, and to promote free enterprise, national defense and traditional American values. Our objective is to provide Patriots across our nation with a touchstone of First Principles through brief, informative and entertaining analyses of relevant news, policy and opinion from reputable research, advocacy and media organizations, so they may better support and defend those Principles, and enlist others to join our ranks." —Mark Alexander, Publisher
The Patriot Post is not sustained by any political, special interest or parent organization, and we accept no advertising. Our mission and operations are funded entirely by the voluntary financial support of Patriots like you!
Just what is "progressive" about a system that requires a man who drives a taxi cab 80 hours a week to support himself and his family to pay 4 or more times the taxes of a man who drives a similar cab 40 hours a week? Where in the constitution is the requirement that the citizens of the country be subject to the whimsical requirements of bureaucrats and regulators as to the use of their own private energies and assets. Which amendment to the constitution was it that removed the concept of private property and made all property public? We might as well change the motto to E Pluribus Unicorn!
