"Up, sluggard, and waste not life; in the grave will be sleeping enough." - Ben Franklin - Poor Richard's Almanack, 1741

The industrious spirit of a free nation ushered in the industrial revolution. It is important that we remember how we got here. God fearing patriots, who had the courage to fight for freedom, started the best country on earth, the USA. Our forefathers created an environment where private property is respected and personal freedoms are guaranteed.

Without that, we would not have made such great advances as electricity, the improved electric lightbulb, steam engine, refrigeration, air conditioning, railroad, telegraph, telephone, gramophone, radio, television, airplane, Xray's etc. These inventions and technologies have helped mankind the world over. Without America and the freedom that she represents, the world would suffer. God Bless America!
