To distrust government is simply to trust humanity - to trust in the ability of average people to peacefully, productively coexist without some official policing their every move. The State is merely another human institution - less creative than Microsoft, less reliable than Federal Express, less responsible than the average farmer husbanding his land, and less prudent than the average citizen spending his own paycheck.” ~ James Bovard (1956- ) American author, lecturerSource: Freedom in Chains, The Rise of the State and the Demise of the Citizen (St. Martin's Press), 2000
