Barry Goldwater speaks on the growth of Federal government encroaching on states' rights
William Bradford Huie and Hardy Burt talk with Senator Elect Barry Morris Goldwater (Republican Party, Arizona). Goldwater speaks about his interest in politics starting during World War 2. Goldwater talks about the growth of the Federal government, stating that it has gotten too big, and that it has a tendency to preempt State functions of states. He says the big federal government has too many federal agencies and too many bureaus. He says the federal government Agriculture Department has multiple agencies in counties that are performing overlapping duties. Goldwater says that what the government is doing can be done more efficiently and cheaper, and in many cases at the state level instead. He speaks about the fear of socialism growing. He cites the example of states being required to involve the federal government when they want to open a new grammar school or high school. He says the issue is one of control and the government taking too much of the tax dollar, and that there could one day be a federal government in Washington DC that believed in socialism, and that if it controlled the schools, it could be telling the schools what to teach. He agrees with presenter that federal tax policies are making it difficult for state and local governments. He says that 78 cents of each tax dollar used to stay local, and now 78 cents of each tax dollar goes to the federal government in Washington DC is not being spent as efficiently as if it was controlled at the local level. Goldwater speaks about the lower standard of living of Native American Indians, and the need to make them "first class citizens". He notes that the Native American Indian can now vote in Arizona, but there is a need to repeal discriminatory laws that prohibit Native American Indians from buying alcohol (liquor), a skillet with handle on it, a gun, or an axe.
