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? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Fabio Celoni’s illustration, painted in 2022, celebrating the 75th anniversary of the creation of Scrooge McDuck by Carl Barks.
Reminds me of the scene from the first episode of "Duck Tales" when Scrooge, the boys and other character raid the gold from the ruins in South America. Different era it was, when they could paint rich people as good people instead of "worse than Hitler".
Oh, oh. Looks like Donald's in for it.
ReplyDeleteHe looks like he's yelling at Huey, Louie, and Dewey: "You damn kids get off my lawn!!"
