And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

When I lived in Albuquerque attending UNM back in the '60s, I was amazed to see some teepees with Cadillacs parked outside them- but even more amazed that some also had TV antennas on top!
Some of those Navahos had some serious cash, don't know how or why. I worked part time manning the Camera counter at a big store; a band of Indians wearing tribal gear came in & wanted a good camera. They pulled out a roll of cash that was 3" thick when they paid!
I wonder how much tax California would charge you? Unless you declared yourself "homeless". Then you'd qualify for $100K a year in cash and benefits.
