The U.S. Capitol building has been an iconic symbol of democracy for well over two hundred years, much like the U.S. itself.  It remained so through the Civil War, World Wars I and II, and too many lesser crises to count, all while remaining largely accessible to the citizens whose interests those who work there are supposed to represent.  However, this Independence Day finds the Capitol off-limits to all but a select few.  Our elite overseers can t be expected to open themselves up to a possible insurrection, can they?  Sad. The tragic events of the past year and a half, and our representatives reaction to them, as well as our own response, have left me wondering what the Founders and other astute political observers might say to us now if they had the chance.
