Cutting Liberty Taxation
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.

Spending is not caring. spending is what politicians do instead of caring. spending more does not guarantee success. politicians like to measure spending because it is easier than measuring actual metrics of accomplishment.
Caring Accomplishment Doe
We're not allowed in the cutting room - and that's extraordinary. so, when a director is asking for certain nuances and colours and we feel that they're phoney, but we do it because the director asks for it, that's the one that they pick in the cutting room. and i contend that when you see a movie with bad acting, don't blame the actor... blame those guys in the cutting room because they like that take.
Cutting Guy Acting
Anyone may arrange his affairs so that his taxes shall be as low as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which best pays the treasury. there is not even a patriotic duty to increase one's taxes. over and over again the courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible. everyone does it, rich and poor alike and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands.
Money Patriotic Government
I thought you liberals cared about people, but here you're perfectly content to get them addicted to tobacco and make them pay taxes through the nose and continue to pay taxes through the nose and raise their taxes. and then you try to make 'em think you care about 'em by running psas telling them how they shouldn't smoke and how they should quit. you're exactly right. if they really cared, they would ban the product, but they can't, because the revenue from tobacco taxes - i'm not kidding you - funds children's health care programs, and a number of other things as well.

Even after the whole democratization process, it's quite clear that the united states are not seen in a positive way in all the muslim-majority countries - in egypt, in libya, even in tunisia - even though we have now a kind of trying to be recognized as democrats by the islamists who are running, you know, tunisia and egypt. but the popular sentiment is very, very negative.
