“For libertarians, freedom entails the right of people to live their lives any way they choose, so long as their conduct is peaceful. For conservatives, freedom entails the right of government to do just about anything it wants, even if its conduct is violent.” PeopleIfsWayWantLongGovernmentLibertyLibertarianViolentPeacefulLibertarianismLibertarian Party Author:Jacob G.

“The biggest threat to the American people today lies with the United States government. ... [T]he long-term solution is to dismantle, not reform, the iron fist of the welfare state and the controlled economy. This includes the end (not the reform) of the IRS, the DEA, the BATF, the SEC, the FDA, HUD, the departments of HHS, Labor, Agriculture, and energy, and every other agency that takes money from some and gives it to others or interferes with peaceful behavior.” PeopleGivingLongEndsStatesGovernmentTodayLyingEnergyTermUnitedUnited StatesEconomyBehaviorSolutionsLaborThreatPeacefulReformWelfareLong TermAgencyDepartmentIronControlledAgricultureInterfereFistsState GovernmentWelfare StateIrsFdaUnited States Government Author:Jacob G.

“And oft I thought (my fancy was-so strong) That I, at last, a resting-place had found: 'Here: will I dwell,' said I,' my whole life long, Roaming the illimitable waters round; Here will I live, of all but heaven disowned. And end my days upon the peaceful flood - To break my dream the vessel reached its bound; And homeless near a thousand homes I stood, And near a thousand tables pined and wanted food.” LongSaidEndsWholeHomeDreamWantedLastsFoundStrongHeavenWaterBreakThousandTablesBoundsRoundsWhole LifePeacefulFancyFloodHomelessVesselLong LifeRoaming Book:The Poems of William Wordsworth Source: The Poems of William Wordsworth
“There is an international disease which feeds on the notion that if you have a cause to defend, you can use any means to further your cause, since the end justifies the means. As an international community, we must oppose this notion, whether it be in Canada, in the United States, or anywhere else. No cause justifies violence as long as the system provides for change by peaceful means.” IfsMeanLongEndsStatesUseCausesCommunityUnitedUnited StatesViolenceDiseaseNotionInternationalTerrorismPeacefulCanadaJustifyInternational CommunityEnds Justify The Means Author:Richard M.
