One of John's favorite quotes is:"Government is not the solution. Government is the problem. - Ronald Reagan The people's government, made for the people, made by the people, and answerable to the people. Daniel Webster I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.- Winston Churchill "Those who would trade freedom for security deserve neither" -- Benjamin Franklin "Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." ~ George Washington "...A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government." - Thomas Jefferson "We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid." -Benjamin Franklin Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as ...Expand for more
a sturdy horse pulling the wagon." -Winston Churchill I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.-Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826), The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not - Thomas Jefferson The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government." Patrick Henry To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. -- Thomas Jefferson "To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society" - Teddy Roosevelt ‎"Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed - else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die." ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. - Thomas Jefferson “Live within your means, never be in debt, and by husbanding your money you can always lay it out well.” -Andrew Jackson You cannot ... help the poor by destroying the rich, strengthen the weak by weakening the strong, bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift, lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down, further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred, build character and courage by taking away people's initiative and independence, help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves." Abraham Lincoln".
