30. my thought
Edited on Thu May-22-08 11:20 PM by some guy
"For me, the proper role of government is to protect my rights: Help me keep thieves and invading armies off my land, stop those who would use force against me when I'm minding my own business, assist me in the enforcement of contracts."

vs

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

It's not all about you, bucko.
