More quotes by William Weld
I think coercive taxation is theft, and government has a moral duty to keep it to a minimum.
William Weld
Do we believe that there is equal economic opportunity out there in the real world, right now, for each and every one of these groups? If we believed in the tooth fairy, if we believed in the Easter Bunny, we might well believe that.
William Weld
I think the dignity of Congress and the dignity of the country demands something more than merely censure here.
William Weld
I`m an old duck hunter. I like to go hunting where the ducks are. We`re looking for votes. I think maybe poaching some of those soft Donald Trump Republican votes would be the place to go.
William Weld
I think Gary Johnson was probably expressing frustration at a series of pop quizzes. He actually was more authoritative on what to do in Syria before the Aleppo moment than any of the other candidates. And I think he called it about right. There is too many different rebel groups there. And it`s a terribly confused situation.
William Weld
I suggest to you that increasing the size of America's economic pie - which can be achieved only if everybody has a seat at the table - is the most important challenge facing our country today.
William Weld
The courts are truly the least dangerous of the three branches of our government.
William Weld
Opposing the free flow of goods or people is a bad idea.
William Weld
I think Gary Johnson is just in the wrong place trying to be President of the United States. And that`s not a secret. I do not view those other two candidates, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton the same way. I think very highly of Mrs. Clinton. I think she is very well qualified.
William Weld
In the nineteenth century, slavery was the greatest wrong, and government never stood so tall as when it was redressing that wrong.
William Weld
Liberals often don't see the problems, and conservatives don't see the promise, of government.
William Weld
I mean that psychologically. I think [Donald Trump] showed in the debates when he encounters criticism or challenge he behaves the way a bully would. He just doesn't take it well.
William Weld
I`m a member of Societies of Former World Leaders. And I`ve always been sort of in favor of constructive engagement around the world. And Gary Johnson has influenced me on criminal justice reform. I think I had some influence in discussions with him about the approach to international affairs.
William Weld
Before my tenure, people didn't seem to think that citizens had a right to limit the size of their government.
William Weld
Micro managing anything is not a great role for government.
William Weld
I think transportation and corrections are not the first two areas that I would go looking for massive change.
William Weld
We need a complete ban on soft money, which is sort of an enveloping problem, and a ceiling on the amount of money that can be spent on a given race.
William Weld
[Donald Trump] doesn't deal well with criticism and blame and I don't think he could competently manage the office of the presidency given the criticism and challenge that you face every single day as the President of the United States.
William Weld
It's completely idiot proof. I told them they've got it all wrong. I want a machine that is idiot friendly.
William Weld
I think Hillary Clinton deserves to have people vouch for her other than members of the Democratic National Committee.
