Ronald
Reagan said one of the three biggest lies is “I’m from the government,
and I’m here to help you.” But it’s more than just a lie. It’s a
threat…For some people, every problem in life cries out for a big
government solution. But oftentimes, the solution is worse than the
problem. Everyone said that health care needed reforms. But most
people now agree it didn’t need to be completely upended by a 2000-page
bill that nobody read. Washington, DC’s, leaders protected the little
guy by requiring Wal-Mart to pay half again more than the minimum wage.
Wal-Mart responded by canceling plans to build several stores in DC,
costing the little guy thousands of jobs and higher food bills. Polls
showed 60 percent of Americans supported immigration reform. But a new
Rasmussen poll found that only 39 percent support the bill the Senate
just passed. Americans are starting to wise up to the fact that our
current political leaders are like George Washington’s doctors: their
cures are worse than the disease.
