    Nothing this government has ever done- except get larger- has ever worked the way it was intended and no contender - minus Ron Paul, Dennis Kunich (sp) and very few others- to the office of the presidency has, or will acknowledge that government is the problem, nor do they intend to make the government smaller and less intrusive.

    The tenth amendment states - The Tenth Amendment was intended to confirm the understanding of the people at the time the Constitution was adopted, that powers not granted to the United States were reserved to the States or to the people.

      While I agree with more government is a no-no, until the people start demanding accountability from their elected officials this will continue.

        "A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship. These nations have progressed through the following sequence: from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from

        dependency back to bondage."
