I hate to push this dead pig but gee, it just shouts at me! Here are just a few quotes thrown from the Bully Pulpit of the White House by President Ronald Reagan:
Government is not the solution, government is the problem.
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.
Unemployment insurance is a pre-paid vacation for freeloaders.
Man is not free unless government is limited.
The
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.One way to make sure crime doesn’t pay would be to let the government run it.
People do not make wars; governments do.
Today, if you invent a better mousetrap, the government comes along with a better mouse.
The best minds are not in government. If any were, business would steal them away.
Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.
Government
exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond
its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.Government is like a baby. An alimentary canual with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.
Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.
