Experience to a politician is like experience to a prostitute - not much to recommend them.

Government is inherently incompetent, and no matter what task it is assigned, it will do it in the most expensive and inefficient way possible.

Given the low level of competence among politicians, every American should become a libertarian. The government that governs least is certainly the best choice when fools, opportunists and grafters run it. When power is for sale, then the government power should be severely limited. When power is abused, then the less power the better.

We...are not really free if we can't control our own government and its policies. And we will never do that if we remain ignorant.

[Y]ou cannot determine either the truth or the right or wrong of anything with a poll. You can only tabulate people's opinions.

When power is for sale, then government power should be severely limited. When power is abused, then the less power the better.

Make sure the government treats others the same as you would want the government to treat you. ...Once you consent to the government ignoring the Constitution, you deny yourself the protection of the Constitution.
