In late 1775, Thomas Paine wrote a forty-eight page pamphlet titled Common Sense, Addressed to the Inhabitants of America, on the Following Interesting Subjects. Mr. Paine and his publisher, Mr. Robert Bell, published the pamphlet anonymously because its substance would be considered treasonable to the Crown.

Today, we again face the tyranny of government. The difference this time is that it is our own government who is the perpetrator. The people once again are faced with the same questions. In the manner of Thomas Paine, we hope in some small way, to again urge the citizenry to action.

With acknowledgement and respect to Mr. Thomas Paine, we present this pamphlet to the Citizens of the Republic of the United States of America.
