Political Quotes

“April 15, the dreaded tax day, is almost here. According to the nonpartisan Tax Foundation, Americans will have to work 108 days this year just to be able to pay their taxes--108 days. That's just not right, and Americans are sick of it. The good news is Congress has a chance to do something about it this year. So what would the average American want to see in a new Tax Code? One, lower tax rates on individuals and businesses, with an assurance that those rates would remain low; Two, no ridiculous special interest loopholes or giveaways, especially those that have nothing to do with creating jobs; and Three, making sure that everyone pays their fair share. If Congress aims for these goals, Americans should get a Tax Code that encourages work and investment, resulting in economic growth and job creation. And let's not forget, we cannot allow any future growth-generated revenue to be spent on wasteful government programs. Instead, the revenue should go toward eliminating the deficit and then paying down our debt. Let's cut spending, lower our deficit, and fix our loophole-ridden, work-penalizing, and jobs-killing Tax Code once and for all. ____________________”
