“Good government cannot be found on the bargain-counter. We have seen samples of bargain-counter government in the past when low tax rates were secured by increasing the bonded debt for current expenses or refusing to keep our institutions up to the standard in repairs, extensions, equipment, and accommodations. I refuse, and the Republican Party refuses, to endorse that method of sham and shoddy economy.” GovernmentPastFoundPartyEconomyRepublicanTaxesLowsStandardsEconomicsMethodInstitutionsRateCurrentsRefuseDebtExpensesExtensionsRepublican PartyEquipmentBargainsSampleSecuredAccommodations Author:Calvin Coolidge

“A federal bailout would spare California from having to make spending cuts needed to bring its budget into balance. The matter has become urgent since California voters rejected several tax-hiking ballot initiatives. Rather than taking the vote as a signal to dramatically curtail spending, the state turned to the feds. If they get a free pass, the politicians can avoid fixing any of their past mistakes or preparing California for the future.” IfsMatterStatesPastMistakeCuttingNeededBalancePoliticianTaxesVoteSpendingBudgetsCaliforniaFedsVotersHikingInitiativeRejectedSparesPreparingSignalsUrgentFixingBallotsPast MistakesBailoutsSpending Cuts Author:Peter Schiff
“Suggestion of the Communist Manifesto was 'abolition of all right of inheritance.' Looking backward upon the past history of estate taxes, we have to realize that they more and more have approached the goal set by Marx.

“We are under the stifling regulation and taxes of a predominantly left-wing type of thinking and philosophy. The eight years of Barack Obama have shrouded this country in punitive regulations. We haven't had economic growth higher than one and a half percent for the last eight or nine years, and that was done on purpose. There have been robust times in the past, and there are a lot of people right now that are doing well and are growing. But generally it ought to be much better in the past.

“I think that Democrats have to think through answers we haven't in the past: How we are going to create those jobs? How should we restructure the entire tax code?
