Owning and running a lg Family Farm for 22yrs, I saw it happen in the ag-hort industry, often. The fed and state EPA, Ag Dept, BLM, DER, DNR, ACoE and others were detriments terrible to deal with, and put a lot of farms, nurseries etc out of business for senseless regs.
Yes. Cruz plans to shut down the useless agencies that do nothing but make it harder for people and businesses to make money.
Great example!
I don’t think it’s said enough, that individual rights are not the same as the form of gov’t. People tend to confuse the two, and think “democracy” includes individual rights.
Not so.
Hobbes recognized this, and came to the conclusion that individual rights would be best preserved by a monarchy.
Our Founding Fathers feared the potential of democratic mobs to annul all individual rights.
So while we may have some kind of “gov’t by the people” in the US nowadays (we get to vote! big whoop), our individual rights have suffered horribly.
