January 3, 2026, Facebook post from Minute Man National Historical Park “In England a King hath little more to do than to make war and give away places; which in plain terms, is to impoverish the Nation and set it together by the ears. A pretty business indeed for a man to be allowed eight hundred thousand pounds a year for, and worshipped into the bargain! Of more worth is one honest man to society and in the sight of God, than all the crowned ruffians that ever lived.” Thomas Paine, “Common Sense” January 1776 Join us as we commemorate the 250th anniversary of the publication of "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine!
