"[T]he States can best govern our home concerns and the general government our foreign ones. I wish, therefore...never to see all offices transferred to Washington, where, further withdrawn from the eyes of the people, they may more secretly be bought and sold at market."
- Thomas Jefferson,
(letter to Judge William Johnson, 12 June 1823)
