"Nothing is so galling to a people not broken in from birth as a paternal, or, in other words, a meddling government, a government which tells them what to read, and say, and eat, and drink and wear"

This quote by Thomas Babington talks with the relevance of freedom as well as freedom. He is suggesting that a federal government that meddles in the lives of its people is overbearing and also can be especially galling to those that have actually not been accustomed to it from birth. He is implying that people must be enabled to make their very own decisions about what to review, state, consume, drink, and also use. This quote talks to the importance of flexibility of choice as well as the right to choose for oneself. It also speaks with the value of a federal government that values the autonomy of its residents and also does not conflict in their lives. Babington's quote is a pointer of the value of flexibility and also autonomy and also the requirement for a federal government that values these civil liberties.
