Ronald Reagan
Now, so there will be no misunderstanding, it's not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us to stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it foster productivity, not stifle it.
Ronald Reagan
Government Steals from the needy and gives to the greedy
Ronald Reagan
If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.

Ronald Reagan
