The price of liberty is eternal vigilance. You didn't just fix it and it'll work forever. Liberty is a machine. It needs maintenance, and repairs, and checking, and oil, and examining for potential breaks. It's hard work, and it has to continue. But we took our eyes off the ball. More fool us.

Right now all these billionaires are discovering that they can accelerate their acquisitive ambitions by allying themselves with each other. This will turn nasty, of course, and they'll turn on each other. We'll all have to suffer the fallout. Buckle up. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
