Madison Was Right

My wife and Gen La Greca have a piece up at the Daily Caller. It opens like this:

Constitution Day (September 17) commemorates the 1787 signing of the document that established the United States of America. But like the victim of a terrible accident, the government that was formed that historic day in Philadelphia is hardly recognizable today, and the heart that propelled it — the principle of individual rights — is on life support.

The article focuses on James Madison's thoughts on property rights.

He explains that our right to property is as untouchable as our freedom of speech, press, religion and conscience. In fact, he views the concept of property as fundamental, pertaining to much more than merely our material possessions.

Your other rights will soon be overthrown
if they can take away anything you own.
