Socialism violates at least three of the Ten Commandments: It turns government into God, it legalizes thievery and it elevates covetousness. Discussions of income inequality, after all, aren't about prosperity but about petty spite. Why should you care how much money I make, so long as you are happy? -Ben Shapiro Government
The soldiers never explained to the government when an Indian was wronged, but reported the misdeeds of the Indians. -Geronimo Government
Our goal is to shrink government to the size where we can drown it in a bathtub. -Grover Norquist Government

An easily accessible and transparent database of contract information will bring sunshine into the confusing and sometimes shadowy practice of government contracting. -Tom Coburn Government
I don't think that much change comes from economists. I think it comes more from political realities. Probably the two giants of the 20th century, who actually did shift government policy in the U.S. and around the world, were John Maynard Keynes and Milton Friedman. I don't see anybody in our system who is at that level of influence. -Adam Davidson Government
The story of Detroit's bankruptcy was simple enough: Allow capitalism to grow the city, campaign against income inequality, tax the job creators until they flee, increase government spending in order to boost employment, promise generous pension plans to keep people voting for failure. Rinse, wash and repeat. -Ben Shapiro Government
All Americans value the freedom of speech and the freedom of the press, and I believe this is essential for our continued way of life. But with this freedom comes responsibility. That responsibility has been abdicated here by some in the media and some in the government. -Steven Hatfill Government
Government loses its claim to legitimacy when it fails to fulfill its obligations. -Martin L. Gross Government
A government of, by and for the people is obligated to conduct the nation's business in a manner that respects dissent. -Jim Leach Government

Look, the center right coalition in American politics today is best understood as a coalition of groups and individuals that on the issue that brings them to politics what they want from the government is to be left alone. -Grover Norquist Government
But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist. -Lysander Spooner Government
You can't write about history without writing about politics at some point. History is about movements of people. 'What is criminality and what is government' is a theme that runs through every history. -David Mamet Government
We don't walk. We overeat because we've made it easy to overeat. We have fast-food joints on every corner. By the way, the 'we' is all of us. It's not the government. It's all of us doing this together. -Mehmet Oz Government
Individuals can spend their money more wisely, efficiently and more humanely than can government. -Larry Elder Government

We have an opportunity, but we have an obligation to senior citizens and to the younger people who are entering the workforce today to help ensure that they are going to be able to trust the government to have a workable program that benefits them as well. -Thad Cochran Government
The question is: how bad do things have to get before you will do something about it? Where is your line in the sand? If you don't enforce the constitutional limitations on your government very soon, you are likely to find out what World War III will be like. -Michael Badnarik Government
