Can we remember perhaps JFK's most dire warning left to us today, the living, fifty years later, in the midst of the Surveillance State of America?



"....Even today, there is little value in insuring the survival of our nation if our traditions do not survive with it. And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning to the very limits of official censorship and concealment…"
{again, emphasizing the last phrase, carefully, because it contains so much relevance even for us, today, if not more so then when he first spoke them}

"And that a very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon...by those anxious to expand its meaning..."
