Rein in Government

The cost of operating the Federal government in the United States is clearly out of control, but the reach of government at all levels needs to be curbed. Can you imagine the Founding Fathers permitting zoning regulation to determine how they could use land that they already owned? Would those who revolted over the forced quartering of British soldiers, a small duty on tea, and the Stamp Act have accepted being told what kind of light bulb to buy, what type of water heater to use, and how much water their flush toilets could consume had any of those apparatus existed back then? No way!
