Sam Houston Would Agree With Ron Paul

"The great misfortune is that a notion obtains with those in power, that the world, or the people require more governing than is necessary. To govern too well is a great science, but no country is ever improved by too much governing. . . most men think when they are elevated to position, that it requires an effort to discharge their duties, and they leave common sense out of the question."
Sam Houston.
