More In Government "I think if you have a two-story office and you hire someone who’s handicapped, it might be reasonable to let him have an office on the first floor rather than the government saying you have to have a $100,000 elevator."― Rand Paul "By definition, a government has no conscience. Sometimes it has a policy, but nothing more."― Albert Camus "The roots of racism lie deep in man’s nature, wounded and bruised by original sin."― Sargent Shriver
