Give Politicians Power And It Certainly Will

Once We Realize That Government Doesn't Work, We Will Stop Dreaming That This Or That Social Problem Can Be Solved By Passing A Law - Or By Creating A New Government Program - Or By Electing Someone Who Will Make Washington More Efficient Or Cost-conscious.

The American Heritage Was One Of Individual Liberty, Personal Responsibility And Freedom From Government ... Unfortunately ... That Heritage Has Been Lost. Americans No Longer Have The Freedom To Direct Their Own Lives ... Today, It Is The Government That Is Free - Free To Do Whatever It Wants. There Is No Subject, No Issue, No Matter ... That Is Not Subject To Legislation.

The Seeds Of Today's Runaway Government Were Planted When It Was Decided That Government Should Help Those Who Can't Help Themselves. From That Modest, Compassionate Beginning To Today's Out-of-control Mega-state, There's A Straight, Unbroken Line. Once The Door Was Open, Once It Was Settled That The Government Should Help Some People At The Expense Of Others, There Was No Stopping It.

Immigrants Used To Come To America Seeking Freedom Of Speech, Freedom Of Religion, And Freedom From Government. Now They Come Looking For Free Health Care, Free Education, And A Free Lunch.

But, Actually, It Is Only Americans Who Say That Our Freedoms And Prosperity Are The Reason Foreigners Hate Us. If You Ask The Foreigners, They Make It Clear That It's America's Bullying Foreign Policy They Detest.
