Randy Haugen Quixtar blog highlights a couple quotes from a former congressman, Bob McEwen, about the peril of government control.

"Bob McEwen is one of the bright stars in conservative thought. McEwen is a former U.S. Congressman. Bob is like a one-man political think tank." –-Billy Florence

Bob McEwen--About Government

"When government controls the tools, government controls the man. You are then at the mercy of the government. There's nothing you can do about it. You've lost your freedom; you've lost your independence." --Former Congressman Bob McEwen

"While government economic planning may sound attractive, it is fundamental that in order for a government social program to work we all must be fitted into it. Those who will not fit voluntarily are coerced. That's why they must build walls around socialist countries to keep people in to enjoy the benefits." --Former Congressman Bob McEwen
