The U.S. states that allow for citizens' initiatives tend to have fewer laws and lower taxes than the ones that don't. But the beauty of the system is that it encourages the spread of best practice.

Government works less efficiently when it begins to grow out of control and takes on more and more of the responsibilities that belong to the citizens.

I always preach that you have to be active as a citizen no matter what, and some people just voting as an excuse not to do anything.

If we are going to do big things in our country, we're going to have to think about better ways working across our differences.

We must get government out of the way and help foster an environment where small businesses are free to grow and create jobs.

There's a general culture in this country to cut all the trees. It makes me so angry because everyone is cutting and no one is planting.

The more we can grow on already cultivated land, the better.

When millions of law-abiding people achieve citizenship, our communities benefit, and the U.S. economy grows and strengthens.

My task as a citizen is to get the government to do more good and less inefficient and wasteful work.

I really believe in the environmental movement right now - it only takes a little effort to make a big difference.
