He would say whatever the government paid him to say. That's what he did during the Revolution. He was a paid propagandist for the Continental Congress.

Considering that the revolutionary times were a time when Bostonians revolted over a 1% sales tax on tea and stamps, they would probably look at our current bureaucracy, which takes 30% of our entire income, and wonder when their countrymen became a nation of sheep, surrendering their liberties for a measure of government sanctioned comfort.

Thomas Paine would be "pained" by the far left. What he would probably say is "I pledge allegience to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, with liberty and justice for all".

"Well... at least it lasted 230 years, which is longer than Tom, Ben, James, George and I had hoped or imagined."
(He'd have said this around 1992, when the first Clinton was elected.)

He wouldn't say anything. He would piss on the Capitol building and the White House.

He'd be sitting in traffic, on his cell phone, moaning and groaning like the rest of us.
