“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can
only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves
largess of the public treasury. From that time on the majority
always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the
public treasury, with the results that a democracy always collapses
over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The
average age of the world's great civilizations has been 200 years.
These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to
spiritual faith; from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage
to liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to
selfishness; from selfishness to complacency; from complacency to
apathy; from apathy to dependency; from dependency back again to
bondage.” –Sir Alex Fraser Tytler (1742-1813) Scottish jurist and historian
