    Nancy Omeara
    “Educate not Legislate
    Refusing to pass unnecessary laws requires a converse – encouraging education and understanding. We started by slashing the salaries of legislators (Dubbed “Bloodbath on the Beltway”).

The result was a generation of bright, energetic 18-year-olds graduating high-school, equipped to tackle the future.”
    ― Nancy Omeara, The Most Popular President Who Ever Lived [So Far]
