It’s my first time participating in a Friday meme from Meet the Founders. It’s fun! America’s founding fathers always had great things to say, so I will thoroughly enjoy this meme. Here’s mine for today:
“When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” — Benjamin Franklin
Now that’s food for thought in today’s world….
Check out Meet the Founders and join the meme today!

Thanks for joining my meme, Mrs. Mecomber! I linked to this post on mine.
Great quote! Maybe Congress and all the people who keep electing them ought to consider that. Or better yet, maybe they should actually start caring for the republic rather than themselves.
