It's all very well to run around saying regulation is bad, get the government off our backs, etc. Of course our lives are regulated.

The alternative is dead bodies at the intersection, no fish, and no ducks. OK? —Molly Ivins More about this quote Tags: government traffic regulation libertarianism Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email

And if it stops moving, subsidize it. —Ronald Reagan More about this quote Tags: government taxes regulation economy Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
