Government today is growing too strong to be safe. There are no longer any citizens in the world there are only subjects. They work day in and day out for their masters they are bound to die for their masters at call. Out of this working and dying they tend to get less and less. H.l. Mencken
About This Quote

The government should not be strong because it takes away the rights of the people. The people should not have to die for their masters at call. It should be out of this working and dying that people get less and less. No one should have to die for their master because that is their choice, not something forced upon them by someone else.
