Government is like fire: a useful servant and a terrible master.

“Government is like fire: a useful servant and a terrible master.”

Indeed. You would think Conservatives (of which I am one) would know that the libertarian approach of minimizing government is the only way to advance Conservatism.

Government is innately anti-conservative.

For example (talked about on another thread going), in Europe they are outlawing Jewish circumcision -— only an issue because people stupidly gave away parental rights and power to the government —— you know “for the children.”

I agree.

I can’t stand drugs or druggies, but all the drug war has succeeded in doing to me personally is have 20+ armed guys with machine guns pointed at me when I was driving on a private road on my own ranch.

They laughed at me when I said they were tresspassing and to get the f—k off my property.

That’s the moment I realized they are just the tip of an occupying force.
