You cannot love America and hate Americans. Love of country starts with the person across the table, especially when you can't stand what they said. Rejoin someone you disagree with, and join the Battle to Save the Republic. Franklin runs the presses and Paine edits. The Spirits spill the tea on what happened 250 years ago this morning, read today's headlines and answer back, dare you to find out what you actually believe, and send you down the street to argue with a neighbor over coffee.

Sit down with somebody you fell out with. The Founders buy the first 76 cups. Hosts: put a table on the map. Your message in your own voice, a poster and a QR code, under thirty seconds. Small print: free entry path always available. No purchase, no essay, no catch. Rejoin, or drink alone.

$250 for the best student essay or editorial. Students write, teachers teach, everyone else picks up a cup. Not a student? The presses want your hands anyway. A standing invitation to write for the Spirits, and letters to the editor are always read. What we print publishes as a Broadside under your own byline, judged against The Printer's Standard.

Two shelves. What to read: the Spirits' Shelf, an open shelf with a posted standard, every book with its own page. What to use: the instruments, from the Constitution Test to Where Do You Stand. Teachers: $1,776 to the most effective lesson using the site, paid at school year end. The lesson kit is one file.
