Courtesy of Helen Szamuely, Your Freedom and Ours, I quote from this article by Roger Kimball, one headlined "Democracy: Use it or lose it".
"I will not........cede more power to the state.........I will hoard my power like a miser, resisting every effort to drain it away from me. I will then use my power as I see fit. I mean to live my life an obedient man, but obedient to God, subservient to the wisdom of my ancestors; never to the authority of political truths arrived at yesterday at the voting booth"Now that seems like a plan!
