He [the Statist] Is Unmoved By Reason,

To Be True To Its Constitutional Role, The Supreme Court Should Refuse To Be Drawn Into Making Public Policy, And It Should Strike Down Legislation Only When A Clear Constitutional Violation Exists. When Judicial Activists Resort To Various Inventions And Theories To Impose Their Personal Views On Privacy And Liberty, They Jeopardize The Legitimacy Of The Judiciary As An Institution And Undermine The Role Of The Other Branches Of Government.

Politicians And Bureaucrats Are Substituting Their Uninformed, Largely Political Decisions For Those Of The Marketplace. Their Past Miscalculations Demonstrate That They Do Not And Cannot Possess The Information, Knowledge, Means, And Discipline To Manage The Economy.

It Is Folly To Believe That Congress And The President, On Their Own, Will Make The Necessary And Difficult Decisions To Address The Impending Financial Debacle. After All, They And Their Predecessors Engineered The Approaching Tsunami. As The Situation Becomes Direr, The Federal Government's Actions Will Grow More Oppressive.

Taxation Of Private Property, Or The Regulation Of Such Property So As To Reduce Its Value, Can Become In Effect A Form Of Servitude.

The Intensive And Concerted Effort To Exclude References To Religion Or God From Public Places Is An Attack On Our Founding Principles. It's An Attempt To Bolster A Growing Reliance On The Government--especially The Judiciary--as The Source Of Our Rights. But If Our Rights Are Not Unalienable, If They Don't Come From A Source Higher Than Ourselves, Then They're Malleable At The Will Of The State. This Is A Prescription For Tyranny.
