Top 5 quotes from Government

"When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right."

"The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry."

"Egalitarians create the most dangerous inequality of all -- inequality of power. Allowing politicians to determine what all other human beings will be allowed to earn is one of the most reckless gambles imaginable.
