Hate Civilization Giving

More From Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.

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.
Real Simple Desire
I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. i hate the way you drive my car. i hate it when you stare. i hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. i hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. i hate it, i hate the way you're always right. i hate it when you lie. i hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. i hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. but mostly i hate the way i don't hate you. not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.
Hate Lying Cutting
The left's propulsion is hate, and they have to have an outlet for the hate. they hate so much. they hate many elements of america. they hate people that don't think the way they do. it's not just that they disagree, they hate, and this energy requires action. people on the right, they don't hate anybody. we want everybody to get along, when you get right down to it. we're rodney king types, actually.
Kings Hate Thinking
I'm making a lot of money. i should be paying a lot more taxes. i'm not paying taxes at a rate that is even close to what people were paying under eisenhower. do people think america wasn't ascendant and wasn't an upwardly mobile society under eisenhower in the '50s? nobody was looking at the country then and thinking to themselves, "we're taxing ourselves into oblivion." yet there isn't a politician with balls enough to tell that truth because the whole system has been muddied by the rich. it's been purchased.
Country Thinking America
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.
Running Thinking People
The rich people are apparently leaving america. they're giving up their citizenship. these great lovers of america who made their money in this country-when you ask them to pay their fair share of taxes they run abroad. we have 19-year old kids who lost their lives in iraq and afghanistan defending this country. they went abroad. not to escape taxes. they're working class kids who died in wars and now billionaires want to run abroad to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. what patriotism! what love of country!

Our gazes locked, so much passing between us. in those moments, i wasn't in a tent with him, on the run from those who regarded us as villains. there was no murderer to catch, no strigoi trauma to overcome. there was just him and me and the feelings that had burned between us for so long.
