"John Stossel, anchor of the ABC News program 20/20, is a rarity among the ranks of American media personalities. He's a skeptic when it comes to everything except freedom. ... Over the years, he has made a very good career in TV journalism, poking holes in the self-inflated posturing of union leaders, environmental zealots, businessmen who demand government favors, and, most of all, politicians."

"I believe, just as Jefferson did, that less government is good government, and as George Washington did, that government is not reason or persuasion, government is force. ... government ... has grown over 100 years from 1 or 2 percent of the GDP to about 36 percent of the GDP. ..."
