During my lifetime, many Americans have become crippled as a result of infantilization. Infantilization came from families, schools, communities, all the way up to national government. "Infantilization" refers to the process which abrogates self-responsibility. Several other not-being-responsible-for-self processes stepped into take the place of self-responsibility.

AMERICANS: STOP LIVING DEFENSIVELY!
- JIHAD THIS, BABY!
HUMAN POWER = IDEA POWER
- Ideas power men. Men power cultures. Cultures power civilizations. Civilizations power history. Ideas are the fuel of man's mind.
- It is not a question of whether man chooses to be guided by [philosophy]: he is not equipped to live without it. (Ayn Rand)
- History is philosophy teaching by example (Lord Bolingbroke)
- The trouble with nations is that there is an unequal distribution of capitalism. (Rush Limbaugh)
- Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear. (Thomas Jefferson)
