Quote of the Day

Paraphrased from this Mostly Cajun post:

Taxpayer: A title much of the Democrat Party's core constituency fails to acheive

Because it's never a good idea to vote against your own economic best interests, and who doesn't like "free money"?

Here's a couple of associated quotes:

A democratic government is the only one in which those who vote for a tax can escape the obligation to pay it.

--

The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.

Both of those by Alexis de Tocqueville.
