Quote of the day...

“It is a fundamental principle in the British Constitution and I think must be in every free State, that no laws bind the people but such as they consent to be Governed by, therefore so far as the people of the Colonies are Bound by Laws made without their consent, they must be in a state of Slavery or absolute subjection to the Will of others; if this Right belongs to the people of the Colonies, why should they not claim and enjoy it?"

Roger Sherman, CT Signer of the Declaration of Independence, in a letter to Thomas Cushing
