Why Should The Government Subsidize Intellectual Curiosity?

The Societies Which Have Achieved The Most Spectacular Broad-based Economic Progress In The Shortest Period Of Time Are Not The Most Tightly Controlled, Not Necessarily The Biggest In Size, Or The Wealthiest In Natural Resources. No, What Unites Them All Is Their Willingness To Believe In The Magic Of The Marketplace.

As For The Enemies Of Freedom, Those Who Are Potential Adversaries, They Will Be Reminded That Peace Is The Highest Aspiration Of The American People. We Will Negotiate For It, Sacrifice For It, We Will Not Surrender For It - Now Or Ever.

Our Nation Was Built And Civilized By Men And Women Who Used Guns In Self-defense And In Pursuit Of Peace. One Wonders Indeed, If The Rising Crime Rate, Isn't Due As Much As Anything To The Criminal's Instinctive Knowledge That The Average Victim No Longer Has Means Of Self-protection.

The Most Fundamental Paradox Is That If We're Never To Use Force, We Must Be Prepared To Use It And To Use It Successfully. We Americans Don't Want War And We Don't Start Fights. We Don't Maintain A Strong Military Force To Conquer Or Coerce Others. The Purpose Of Our Military Is Simple And Straightforward: We Want To Prevent War.
