You don't have freedom because you are a hyphenated American; you have freedom because you are an individual, and that should be protected.

Remember, politicians get votes by promising everything to everyone, always at the expense of some other invisible taxpayers.

Both sides of the political spectrum must one day realize that limitless government intrusion in the economy, in our personal lives, and in the affairs of other nations cannot serve the best interests of America.

And yet even among the friends of liberty, many people are deceived into believing that government can make them safe from all harm, provide fairly distributed economic security, and improve individual moral behavior. If the government is granted a monopoly on the use of force to achieve these goals, history shows that power is always abused. Every single time.

Setting a good example is a far better way to spread ideals than through force of arms.

Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it’s realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy.

Politicians throughout history have tried to solve every problem conceivable to man, always failing to recognize that many of the problems we face result from previous so-called political solutions. Government cannot be the answer to every human ill. Continuing to view more government as the solution to problems will only make matters worse.
