When it shall be said in any country in the world:
"My poor are happy; neither ignorance nor distress is to be found among
them; my jails are empty of prisoners, my streets of beggars; the aged are not
in want; the taxes are not oppressive; the rational world is my friend, because
I am a friend of its happiness."-When these things can be said, then may
that country boast of its constitution and its government.
-Thomas Paine
