p> THE ERA OF BIG GOVERNMENT br> Re: Bernard Chapin's Is Demography Destiny? : /p> p>The last line in Mark Steyn's interview that a government that can be everywhere at once is not a government to be desired; it is one to be feared comes from the same mould as Gerald R. Ford's comment that a government that can give you everything you want can take away everything you have. That statement should be engraved on the heart of every conservative, next to Calvin Coolidge's comment that is much more important to stop a bad law from being passed than it is to pass a good one. So many of George Bush's policies fail to meet these two standards and it is a good reason why his record is so poor. br> -- Christopher Holland br> Canberra, Australia /p> p> AMNESTY OUTRAGE br> Re: W.
