Political Quotes

“But we all know once a tax is in place, we do not raise it. Well, maybe that is not right. Usually when we have a tax in place it provides a floor from which to raise it, but you go out and buy an RV, or you go out and buy a sport utility vehicle--you know, a camper, a motor home a travel trailer or any of this. We are now talking about a quarter to a half a percent tax on these items. You know we have been joking about this, about what the Clinton- Babbitt tax looks like, because I mean it is, it is taking more money out of the system, it is moving decision-making to Washington. But this is a serious proposal, and this is indicative of what this administration believes. They believe Washington does not have enough money, that the American people are not even intelligent enough to make basic decisions about wildlife in these types of things, and they want more, they want more rules and regulations, and they want to grow the IRS, and they want more of our money, and they are blatantly going out and talking about increasing taxes and not talking about tax simplification. This is complicating the tax code, and it provides another avenue for Washington to suck a little bit more money out of our pockets and feed it to the bureaucrats here in Washington.”
