"A book is made from a tree. It is an assemblage of flat, flexible parts (still called "leaves") imprinted with dark pigmented squiggles. One glance at it and you hear the voice of another person, perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people, citizens of distant epochs, who never knew one another. Books break the shackles of time ― proof that humans can work magic."
--Carl Sagan

Not even the Canadians?

The US government gave slaves liberty they had taken from them.

Many state governments have restored people's right to use marijuana.

It's rare, though.

The U.S. government did not take liberty from the slaves . . . they were enslaved long before American independence was thought of.  Good point, though.

Prohibition comes to mind.  There might be one or two to be found in a list of repealed legislation.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:United_States_repealed_legislation

It is not bigotry to be certain we are right; but it is bigotry to be unable to imagine how we might possibly have gone wrong. - G. K. Chesterton

The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head. And it is his head that splits. - G.K Chesterton
