We are a forward-looking people, and we must have a forward-looking government.

I feel good because I believe I have made progress in rebuilding the people's trust in their government.

As president, Reagan worked very well with Democrats to do big things. It is true that he worked to reduce the size of government and cut federal taxes and he eliminated many regulations, but he also raised taxes when necessary.

A government, for protecting business only, is but a carcass, and soon falls by its own corruption and decay.

The new rage is to say that the government is the cause of all our problems, and if only we had no government, we'd have no problems. I can tell you, that contradicts evidence, history, and common sense.
