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!
Congress has always had the power to tax us. Roberts did not suddenly give them more power. The power of Congress to tax is balanced by our power to vote them in or out of office every two years. Roberts has given every American citizen a wake-up call to take responsibility for our voting choices (or our lack of voting, i.e., our apathy). Roberts has essentially said it's not his, as one man, to fix what we 300 million citizens have allowed the 535 representatives we've elected to do to us. Caveat emptor!!
