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've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. they don't teach you how to love somebody. they don't teach you how to be famous. they don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. they don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. they don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. they don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. they don't teach you anything worth knowing.
Love School Optimistic
The spirit only can teach. not any profane man, not any sensual, not any liar, not any slave can teach, but only he can give, whohas; he only can create, who is. the man on whom the soul descends, through whom the soul speaks, alone can teach. courage, piety, love, wisdom, can teach; and every man can open his door to these angels, and they shall bring him the gift of tongues. but the man who aims to speak as books enable, as synods use, as the fashion guides, and as interest commands, babbles. let him hush.

Sports teaches you character, it teaches you to play by the rules, it teaches you to know what it feels like to win and lose-it teaches you about life.

Buttercup's mother whirled on him. 'did you forget to pay your taxes?' (this was after taxes. but everything is after taxes. taxes were here even before stew.)
Mother Pay Forget
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.

Honestly, you got to take care of the people that take care of you. i know that sounds like cliche, or borderline phony, but that's the case. the reason i've had the fans that i have is because i've been consistent over the years and kept coming back and doing the same runs. i'm never going to stop doing the cities i've gone through. i'm only going to add.

One can run away from women, turn them out, or give in to them. no fourth course.

Being a lifelong runner, knowing what running gives me, a variety of factors - that is what motivates me.
