Click Here For The Only Thing We Have To Fear -- Is Fear Itself!

Albert Burns -- The Only Thing We Have To Fear -- Is Fear Itself!: "We have allowed the IRS almost unlimited access to our earnings without complaining for fear that we might be labeled a tax-evader, for fear that we might be subjected to an audit. We fear speaking up in defense of our Constitutional rights for fear of the very people we are paying to protect those rights.

It has gotten to the point that many fear that they will be charged with sexual harassment if they ask a person out on a date more than once. We have gotten to the point where we fear being called a racist if we promote or fire someone of the wrong ethnic group regardless of that individual's ability or lack thereof.

Many are afraid to speak up in meetings or in some public conference for fear of being labeled a trouble maker.
We used to revere the heroes of bygone days for their lack of apparent fear in the face of danger. Today, the heroes in the popular press are those who have social stature rather than those who stand for what is right and correct even if he or she is the ONLY one against the throng. "
