-- "Ceterum autem censeo, Carthaginem esse delendam"
“When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
The reference is good, but the tag line (do they still 'em that) is truly great! Do you have a reference for it? Whether or not Franklin actually said it, I love it.

Artistic license, since I write I use what is necessary to make the point Oh I forgot I am not an elected (or unelected) official. Always remember: the government is not your friend.

“When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
Sounded more like something Jefferson would have said anyway. Artistic license or not, I liked it.
Today, the government is all about the money. Traffic enforcement cameras are BIG Business. Over fifteen years ago VDOT installed speed cameras around the DC beltway but I don't think they ever implemented charging fines. I wonder if they're rethinking it. TJ would not be proud of his state.
Thanks for a useful reference.
