Big-government proponents embrace both the power of the federal government and the idea that millions of Americans ought to be dependent on its largesse. It's time to return to our Founders' love for small government. More is not always better.
Pretty much at all times music motivates me. How can I say this without sounding in any way proud of myself? Obviously I've always written songs that are critical of our government and talk about our times. Hopefully you attempt to be timeless while doing it.
In government offices which are sensitive to the vehemence and passion of mass sentiment public men have no sure tenure. They are in effect perpetual office seekers always on trial for their political lives always required to court their restless constituents.

In any crass political calculation drilling for oil will always win more votes than putting a price on carbon. But if I recall what I was taught in fifth-grade American government class we elect presidents to do more than crass political calculations.
Nobody is starving on the streets. We've always taken care of them. We take care of our own we always have. It is not the government's responsibility.

The control of information is something the elite always does particularly in a despotic form of government. Information knowledge is power. If you can control information you can control people.
The problem with leaderless uprisings taking over is that you don't always know what you get at the other end. If you are not careful you could replace a bad government with one much worse!

A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.
It's opportunity. It's opportunity not a check from government - it's opportunity that has always driven America and defined us as Americans.

Now let me be clear. The path I lay out is not one paved with ever increasing government checks and cradle to grave assurance that government will always be the solution. If this election is a bidding war for who can promise the most goodies and the most benefits I'm not your president. You have that president today.
Government always finds a need for whatever money it gets.

I own that I am not a friend to a very energetic government. It is always oppressive.
