Fundamentals Of Good Government"Government is not reason; it is not eloquence; it is force! Like
fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." George Washington 1. God created men and his unalienable rights of life, liberty and property. 2. An individual has the right to defend his blessings of life, liberty, and property. 3. Men have the duty to create and sustain a government organization that will secure his rights. 4. An individual may not violate another's right to life, liberty and property, without punishment by government or by the victim himself where applicable. 5. Government and it's officials must be restrained to only defend and sustain our unalienable rights, and never become a party to allowing these rights to be violated. 6. Too much government power results in man-made rights that violate our God-given rights, i.e. Communism, Socialism, Nazism, Democracy, and Totalitarianism. 5. Too little government power results in not being able to maintain our God-given rights, i.e. Anarchy, and Criminal rule. 6. The correct amount of government power and its restraint to only securing our God-given rights results in liberty. 7. Our republic is a government of law under a Constitution. The Constitution of the United States of America was constructed by lovers of liberty. 8. Misunderstanding of these fundamentals of government has caused an erosion of liberty in the United States of America.
