Although you probably know that your life began when two cells united, do

you know that people who create a nation are continuing a long history of things

that unite?  Atoms unite and form a molecule; molecules unite and form a cell;

cells unite and form a person; and people unite to form a nation.  After

billions of years of uniting on earth, we are the first units to develop a brain

that can understand what is going on.

      The biggest threat to our survival comes from people who want to rob us. 

To eliminate this threat, our ancestors created the first nation by choosing a

leader who could protect each person from the violent behavior of others.  This

wonderful system of electing a leader allows people to live in peace, and is

called a government.  Unfortunately, no nation has survived for long because

government leaders have misused their power.

      The people who created the Constitution of the United States solved this

problem by writing a list of actions that our leaders are not allowed to take. 

For example, the first Americans decided that our government will not abridge

the freedom of the press, which is why I can send you this book.  Our nation has

grown very strong because we are the first people to restrict our politicians. 

I would like to persuade you that we need to add another restriction to sustain

the health of our nation.

      The worst abuse of power by most politicians is taxation.  They start by

taking a small amount of money from a few citizens.  Then, because every living

thing tries to grow as strong as possible, these politicians take more and more

money from everyone.  To insure the survival of our nation, we should add the

following to our list of restrictions:

      I would like to offer you a trade.  If you vote for me to become the

President, I will work to protect all Americans from anyone who tries to rob us. 

I will introduce contract insurance, which is a way that we can operate our

government without taxation.  A couple of centuries ago, Americans eliminated

the disease of slavery from our beautiful nation.  This century, we should

eliminate taxes.
