| 668030 | 2008-05-11 23:27:00 | A few of my favourite tax quotations from here (quotations.about.com): Will Rogers It is a good thing that we do not get as much government as we pay for. Robert A. Heinlein There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him. Arthur Godfrey I am proud to be paying taxes in the United States. The only thing is I could be just as proud for half of the money. H. L. Mencken Unquestionably, there is progress. The average American now pays out twice as much in taxes as he formerly got in wages. John S. Coleman The point to remember is that what the government gives it must first take away. Winston Churchill There is no such thing as a good tax. Albert Einstein The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax. Robert A. Heinlein Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss. Winston Churchill We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. G. Gordon Liddy A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money. Calvin Coolidge Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery. Dan Bennett There's nothing wrong with the younger generation that becoming taxpayers won't cure. Jewish Proverb Taxes grow without rain. Robert Dole The principle involved here is time-honored and true: and that is it's your money. Robert Dole The purpose of a tax cut is to leave more money where it belongs: in the hands of the working men and working women who earned it in the first place. Roger Jones I guess I think of lotteries as a tax on the mathematically challenged. Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard's Almanac It would be a hard government that should tax its people one-tenth (my underlining!) part of their income. And one I can't find a source for, but I suspect to be Robert Heinlein: "Taxation is never used for the benefit of the taxed" |

| 668036 | 2008-05-12 03:19:00 | How sad. What are you, 13 years of age? Coming from you (no doubt a deluded, brainless Labour voter) I'll take that as a compliment. :thanks Or perhaps you wish I was 13 so perhaps you could attempt to brainwash me into following your political cult, thus ensuring a guaranteed vote for red every 3-4 years. Let's face it, if Labour had their way, they'd give 13 year olds the right to vote (along with driving licences, interest free student loans, right to consume alcohol etc) cos it's all about appealing to the masses. |
