Food For Thought

A reader sent us this quote:

The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power.

— Franklin D. Roosevelt

And all this time we thought Mayor Paul Tomlinson was trying to create a dictatorship. Sorry about that, Paul.
