One more little snippet from Thomas Jefferson for you, since you seem so intent on dishonoring his beliefs:
Quote:
|
A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.

Anyone interested in Jefferson should pick up
American Sphinx, by Joseph Ellis. A great read that really gets your gears turning.
