“A wise and frugal government … shall restrain men from injuring one another, 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, First Inaugural Address

“To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it.”
-Thomas Jefferson

How's that sound for the role of government. Straight from the mouth of one of the greatest American minds that our country has known

Would be nice if we tried it first before deciding it can't be done.

You cannot re-create Reagan. Republicans need to look to a current model instead of one rooting in the WWII generation.
