“As long as my record stands in federal court, any American citizen can be held in prison or concentration camps without trial or hearing. I would like to see the government admit they were wrong and do something about it, so this will never happen again to any American citizen of any race, creed, or color.” LongGovernmentHappensRaceRecordsColorCitizensCourtPrisonHearingTrialsConcentrationCampsCreedsAmerican CitizensConcentration Camp Author:Fred Korematsu
“I would have government defend the life and property of all citizens equally; protect all willing exchange; suppress and penalize all fraud, all misrepresentation, all violence, all predatory practices; invoke a common justice under law; and keep the records incidental to these functions. Even this is a bigger assignment than governments, generally, have proven capable of. Let governments do these things and do them well. Leave all else to men in free and creative effort.” MenWellsGovernmentLawPoliticsJusticeCommonEffortPracticeCreativeRecordsViolenceWillingCitizensProtectLetting GoCapableFunctionBiggerPropertyFraudProvenAssignmentsInvokePredatoryMisrepresentation Author:Leonard Read
“Sometimes, when asked the what-do-you-do question, it occurs to me to say that I work for the government. I have a government job, essential to national security. I AM A CITIZEN. Like the Supreme Court judges, my job is for life, and the well-being of my country depends on me. It seems fair to think that I should be held accountable for my record in the same way I expect accountability from those who seek elected office. I would like to be able to say that I can stand on my record and am proud of it.” ThinkingWayShouldWellsI CanCountrySometimesSeemsGovernmentAbleJobsRecordsSecurityJudgingDependsProudCitizensEssentialsOfficeFairsCourtSupremeWell BeingAccountabilitySupreme CourtNational SecurityCourt JudgesGovernment Jobs Author:Robert Fulghum
