Several have complained that I've taken the Franklin quote out of context: The quote itself has been paraphrased and re-written and re-attributed to Franklin and half a dozen other founding fathers, depending on where you look. I'm not addressing Franklin in this video (don't know if you got the memo, but he's dead). I'm addressing the quote itself, as it is often cited today as if it proves an argument- that is the context of this video.
