It is astonishing with how little wisdom mankind can be governed when that little wisdom is its own.

The Sandinista government became consumed with fighting a war of survival. They were up against the biggest superpower in the world.

I found that I was getting a warm reception for my message of freeing you from the income tax releasing you from Social Security ending the insane war on drugs restoring gun rights and reducing the federal government to just its constitutional functions.

The rule for effective governance is simple. It is one Ronald Reagan knew by heart. And one that he successfully employed with Social Security and the Cold War. When there is a problem you fix it. That is the job you have been sent to do and you cannot wait for someone else to do it for you.

People don't trust the federal government as it relates to health care.
