Governments are not representative. They have their own power, serving segments of the population that are dominant and rich.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It matters more how governments behave than how big they are.
The best government rests on the people, and not on the few, on persons and not on property, on the free development of public opinion and not on authority.
Governments are run by people. People can be bad.
Individuals usually do a better job than the government.
Politics isn't only about government. Politics is about the people.
All governments, the worst on earth, and the most tyrannical on earth, are free governments to that portion of the people who voluntarily support them.
I believe that government is the servant of the people and not their master.
You have to have a certain realism that government is a pretty blunt instrument, and without the constant attention of highly qualified people with the right metrics, it will fall into not doing things very well.
The people want government that works for them at every level.
The government serves the people - not vice-versa.
