“American voters should understand that Congress will always find a way to spend every last dollar sent to Washington. Remember, politicians get votes by promising everything to everyone, always at the expense of some other invisible taxpayers. ...The federal government cannot maintain a budget surplus any more than an alcoholic can leave a fresh bottle of whiskey untouched in the cupboard.” WayShouldGovernmentLastsRememberPoliticsPoliticianVoteDollarsCongressInvisibleBudgetsExpensesVotersBottlesFederal GovernmentAlcoholicsTaxpayersWhiskeySurplusCupboardsAmerican Voters Author:Ron Paul
