Democracy is worth dying for, because it’s the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man.
Government is like a baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.
