"The fact is, my friends, most Americans don’t want more government. They want less government." ― Mike Huckabee Topic(s): Government More From Mike Huckabee "Politics has become unbelievably and unfortunately way too much about how much money is involved rather than what kind of ideas are involved." "If I had quietly retired as governor in 2007 and went into banking or something of that nature, I would have been, at most, a footnote in the story and probably never mentioned." "I support workplace clean air. But a federal ban on smoking would mean that you couldn’t smoke in your own home. I don’t care what people do in their home." More In Government "Urban America has been redlined. Government has not offered tax incentives for investment, as it has in a dozen foreign markets. Banks have redlined it. Industries have moved out, they’ve redlined it. Clearly, to break up the redlining process, there must be incentives to green-line with hedges against risk."― Jesse Jackson "And some of what we’re doing in Government even now, some of the welfare reform programs that are helping lone mothers come into work are based on things that were very new under the Labour Government in the eighties."― Patricia Hewitt "The worst thing in this world, next to anarchy, is government."― Henry Ward Beecher
