    Interesting "quote". I think the real one might have more of a punch:

    “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

    Rate this quote:3.5 / 6 votes

    When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will heraldthe end of the republic. Sell not liberty to purchase power.

    Yes, that is a popular misattributed quote. Franklin isn't the only one who gets tagged with that one.

    The latter part excepting. See Poor Richard's Almanac, 1738.

    "Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power."

    LOL.. typical response to a cop pulling over some drunk guy going 85 in a 55. Wonder what his dad said to him when he got home? Oh I forgot, the old man was a used car salesman from Scranton!
