Jeffersonian Principles in Action

Thomas Jefferson defined the sum of good government as a "wise and frugal government which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which 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."

The role of government, its size and reach, may have changed considerably since Mr. Jefferson's first Inaugural Address in 1801, but the philosophical underpinnings of free markets, individual freedom and limited government endure.

It is better for the public to procure at the common market whatever the market can supply; because there it is by competition kept up in its quality, and reduced to its minimum price. - 1808

-Thomas Jefferson
