“We are angry about paying the highest income taxes and property taxes in the nation and getting less and less for it. We are angry about our incompetent, dysfunctional government that pays no attention to the desires of the people. We are angry about the cesspool of corruption and conflicts of interests and self-dealing that is Albany.” PeopleSelfGovernmentDesireNationsInterestPayAttentionConflictTaxesHighestAngryPropertyCorruptionIncomeIncome TaxIncompetentConflict Of InterestAlbanyProperty Taxes Author:Carl Paladino
“Obama has demonstrated no desire to make tough choices. Americans demand a more efficient, effective government, but his budget calls for more taxes and more spending.

“I'm sure everyone feels sorry for the individual who has fallen by the wayside or who can't keep up in our competitive society, but my own compassion goes beyond that to those millions of unsung men and women, who get up every morning, send the kids to school, go to work, try to keep up the payments on their house, pay exorbitant taxes to make possible compassion for the less fortunate, and as a result have to sacrifice many of their own desires and dreams and hopes. Government owes them something better than always finding a new way to make them share the fruit of their toils with others.” MenWayFeelsTryingDreamGovernmentKidsSchoolDesireHouseIndividualMy OwnResultsPayCompassionMorningMillionsSacrificeShareTaxesFindingsMen And WomenFruitSorryGet UpFortunateFallenEvery MorningNew WaysToilPaymentSomething BetterLess Fortunate Author:Ronald Reagan
“Sometimes I wonder how much of these debates have to do with the desire, the legitimate desire, for that history to be recognized. Because there is a psychic power to the recognition that is not satisfied with a universal program, it's not satisfied by the Affordable Care Act, or an expansion of Pell grants, or an expansion of the earned-income tax credit.” SometimesCareDesireWonderTaxesProgramUniversalCreditDebateIncomeSatisfiedRecognitionGrantsExpansionPsychicsAffordableIncome TaxSometimes I WonderAffordable Care ActPell Grants Author:Barack Obama
“Every nation-state tends towards the imperial - that is the point. Through banks, armies, secret police, propaganda, courts and jails, treaties, taxes, laws and orders, myths of civil obedience, assumptions of civic virtue at the top. Still it should be said of the political left, we expect something better. And correctly. We put more trust in those who show a measure of compassion, who denounce the hideous social arrangements that make war inevitable and human desire omnipresent; which fosters corporate selfishness, panders to appetites and disorder, waste the earth.” ShouldHumansSaidStillsWarStatesShowsEarthLawPoliticalDesireOrderLeftNationsSocialSecretCompassionVirtueTaxesWasteArmyPoliceCourtMythInevitableSelfishnessObedienceCorporatePropagandaAssumptionJailDisorderAppetiteArrangementsSomething BetterTreatiesCivicsHideousLaw And OrderSecret PoliceCivic Virtue Author:Daniel Berrigan

“The left does understand how raising taxes reduces economic activity. How about their desire for increasing cigarette taxes, soda taxes? What are they trying to do? Get you to buy less. They know. They know that higher taxes reduce activity. It's real simple: If you want more of an activity, lower taxes on it. If you want less of an activity, raise taxes. So if you want more jobs? It's very simple. You lower payroll taxes. If you don't want as many jobs, then you raise corporate taxes. It's that simple, folks.” TryingRealDesireSimpleEconomicTaxesCigarettePayroll Author:Rush Limbaugh
