"Henry Ford used to pay his workers five dollars a day [highest in the world at that time], that was an ounce and a quarter of gold, which at today’s exchange rate, is $2,500 a week. So Ford’s workers were making $2,500 a week, they were paying no federal income taxes and no payroll taxes, there was no minimum wage and there were no unions. We paid the highest wages in the world, yet we produced the highest quality, least expensive products. How is that possible? It’s possible because we had the smallest government."

"Most Americans think the federal government is too large, spends too much money, and spends it badly. Even the most ardent liberals admit there is a tremendous amount of waste in government. But Congress clearly does not agree, because it relentlessly spends more and more each year. American taxpayers, therefore, have two basic options: start voting the big spenders out of office, or slowly submit to democratic socialism courtesy of a government that soon will devour 50% of the nation’s productive output."
