Helpful government
Government from local to national is deciding what is "best" for us. California wants to put remote control thermostats in homes because the government knows best. California has decided that children cannot be home schooled unless the parent has a teaching certificate because the government knows best. Mississippi has a bill pending in the legislature that fat people (as defined by the state) cannot be served in restaurants because the government knows best. Texas tells people they cannot play eight liner machines that pay out too much because the government knows best. The United States government tells us what time it is because the government knows best. I'm tired of the government telling me what is best. I want to return to the days when I was allowed to decide for myself what is best.

Why I supported Ron Paul
Read Ron Paul's column in today's (1 July) Advocate.  His views on personal liberty are the reason I support him as a Congress critter and supported him as a presidential candidate.  Unfortunately, his ideas on freedom don't mesh with either of the major political parties and, because of that, he will never be successful on the national stage.  The freedom of people to be left alone by government is the most important freedom we have and it is fast disappearing.  The democrats want to control your pocketbook and the republicans want to control your bedroom.  It is sad there are so few like Congressman Paul.
