A wise and frugal government which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government. – Thomas Jefferson
Why is it that the actual wars that we fight now are the only thing rarely called wars? Whenever we want to eliminate something, we declare war on it and as soon as I hear that, I know it is a lost cause. We have not really beaten anything we have declared war on since Japan and Germany.
Hmm maybe just maybe you cannot declare war on inanimate objects.

We may be starting a War on Illegal Immigration now, too, depending on how current politics fly.
