Don’t tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon.

Preamble:

We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are NOT created equally. Although
the divisions that previously separated men have functionally been erased from the
public sphere, all men are NOT created equally. Race, religion, ethnicity, gender,
persuasion, and background are the divisions of antiquity. Those are the divisions
of our fathers and forefathers. The divisions that separate modern man are not as clear
as those gleaned from history, but with careful observation they can be discerned.
In today's modern world there exists two breeds of men: those that exhibit a lust for
life and those that are complacent in routine and expectations. We represent the
former and loathe the latter. This coming document will express our goals, morals, and founding
principles.

Diolch yn fawr, Julia.
