Role Of Government Quotes

• Existen ciertos principios básicos sobre el papel adecuado del gobierno. Si los principios son correctos, entonces pueden aplicarse a cualquier propuesta específica con confianza...

• El papel del gobierno nunca ha sido planificar cada detalle o dictar cada resultado. En el mejor de los casos, el gobierno se ha limitado a derribar las barreras a las oportunidades y a sentar las bases de un futuro mejor. Nuestra gente, con todo su empuje e ingenio, siempre acaba construyendo el resto. Y si podemos hacerlo de nuevo, si podemos seguir construyendo esos cimientos y tomando esas difíciles decisiones en nombre de la próxima generación, no me cabe duda de que dejaremos a nuestros hijos los Estados Unidos que todos esperamos.

It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.

• Everybody complains about pork, but members of Congress keep spending because voters do not throw them out of office for doing so. The rotten system in Congress will change only when the American people change their beliefs about the proper role of government in our society. Too many members of Congress believe they can solve all economic problems, cure all social ills, and bring about worldwide peace and prosperity simply by creating new federal programs. We must reject unlimited government and reassert the constitutional rule of law if we hope to halt the spending orgy.
