The people themselves, not their government, should be trusted with spending their own money and making their own decisions.

Politics will sooner or later make fools of everybody.

The average family pays more in taxes than it spends on food, clothing, and shelter combined.

We're going to have a tax cut. Today's American family is overtaxed at all levels.

I don't believe America will justifiably make an unprovoked attack on another nation. It would not be consistent with what we have been as a nation or what we should be as a nation.

Ain't no right way to do the wrong thing.

Government is saying to the average citizen every January 1: 'For the next five months you'll be working for us, for goals we shall determine. Is that clear? After May 5 you may look after your own needs and ambitions, but report back to us next January. Now move along.' ... If nearly half of what you make is spent by someone else, that means that half your work time is spent working for someone else. Call me a radical, but I think that comes dangerously close to being a form of indentured servitude.
