Government regulations are out of control. They dictate how
much water goes into your commode, and how much water comes
out of your showerhead. They determine how hot the water
needs to be in your washing machine, and how many miles to
the gallon your car must achieve. Since the Patriot Act,
your banking records, your gun registration, and your phone
bill are easily accessible by government snoops. Mothers are
arrested for buying raw milk. Families are fined for selling
bunny rabbits without a license. Home and property owners
are strapped with obscene fines, entangled in costly legal
messes, and sent to federal prison, all for moving dirt from
one end of their land to another. Unelected bureaucrats,
armed with arbitrary rules and no need to back them up,
stonewall and attack American citizens at every turn. The
damage can be overwhelmingly taxing---financially,
emotionally and even physically.
And who is being
held accountable? Government regulation and red tape run
amok in Washington, and honest, tax-paying citizens are the
victims of an administration's misuse and abuse of power.
Now, Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, takes an in-depth look
at the legislation that is trampling the rights of ordinary
citizens, strangling their ability to conduct private,
everyday activities without egregious government
interference. He highlights outrageous searches, seizures
and arrests, and points to thousands of regulations that
have been added to the books since Obama took office. Most
importantly, he charts a direction out of this mess, and
toward renewed freedom for all Americans.
These
stories are of everyday Americans badgered and harassed by
their own government---the very institution that is supposed
to serve us all. This gross breach of our constitution is as
frightening as it is real, and GOVERNMENT BULLIES is a call
to action against it.
