The Wit and Wisdom of Ronald Reagan – 13

1.      No government in the history of civilization has ever voluntarily reduced itself in size.

2.      There must be a limit to government size and power.

3.      There has been a distortion of the relationship between various echelons of government – federal, state, and local.

4.      Common sense told us that when you put a big tax on something, the people will produce less of it.

5.      We can make ours the land of the future, offering unlimited opportunity to all Americans who dare to live for their dreams.

6.      Being free and prosperous is a world of peace.

7.      You know, it kind of reminds me of the fellah who asked his friend what the problem really was: Ignorance or apathy. And the friend responded, “I don’t know, and I don’t care.”

Thank you for reading and reflecting on today’s nuggets. Share them with others.   

We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give. Be a giver in a world of takers.

Be blessed and be a blessing to others.
