It says 1870 but I think Ben Franklin died in 1790. But the article is very good and the quote excellent.

We have the will, the determination, and the ability to make that happen but only if our government will step aside and let us get to it. We, the People, are the answer; not more regulation, big government or heavy taxation.

America was founded on the backs of rugged individuals who fought to free themselves from an oppressive and tax greedy Britain.

Let our hard fought freedom and unsurpassed spirit free and we will once again exceed all expectations.
