“Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem.”

“In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.From time to time we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to bemanaged by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and ofthe people. Well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has thecapacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear theburden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higherprice.”

“Government does not solve problems. It subsidizes them.”

“Many people want the government to protect the consumer. A much more urgent problem is to protect the consumer from the government.”

“Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.”

“A woefully corrupt and incompetent government is only a problem to the taxpayer.”
