| | Government - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Within a territory, subnational entities may have local governments which do not have the full power of a national government (for example, they will generally lack the authority to declare war or carry out diplomatic negotiations). | | | Governments also employ different methods to maintain the established order, such as secrecy, police and military forces, (particularly under despotism, see also police state), making agreements with other states, and maintaining support within the state. | | | Government spending in developed countries varies considerably but generally makes up between about 30% and 70% of their GDP. |

| | "Wherever is found what is called a paternal government, there is found state education. | | | People should not be afraid of their government, Government should be afaraid of their people. | | | Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which also I believe, "That government is best which governs not at all"; and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have." ~ Henry David Thoreau |

| | Welcome to the Institute for Liberal Values of New Zealand |
| | For ourselves, we consider that Government is and ought to be nothing whatever but the united power of the people, organized, not to be an instrument of oppression and mutual plunder among citizens; but, on the the contrary, to secure to every one his own, and to cause justice and security to reign. | | | You see that the gentle hand of Government - that good hand which gives and distributes, will be very busy under the government of the reformers. | | | They expected, more firmly than ever, that Government, under a republican form, would open in grand style the source of benefits and close that of taxation. |

| | Another alternative is to define a government as an organisation that attempts to maintain control of a territory, where "control" involves activities such as collecting taxes, controlling entry and exit to the state, preventing encroachment of territory by neighbouring states and preventing the establishment of alternative governments within the country. | | | One approach is to define government as the dominant(on top) better decision-making arm of the state, and define the latter on the basis of the control it has over violence and the use of force within its territory. | | | A government in a developed state is likely to have various sub-organisations known as offices, departments, or agencies, which are headed by politically appointed officials, often called ministers or secretaries. |

| | The Lean Government concept favors a fairly small State, and Lean Government proponents generally believe that the government should cut out "waste" and "inefficiency" from the State, and are in favor of low taxes. | | | Lean Government is a term used mainly in the United States and Canada for the belief that the State should employ only just as many people as are necessary to perform its tasks. | | | Lean government has nothing to do with low taxes only efficient use of those taxes levied. |
