Hoyer: It's Good for People to Make Money Because Then They Can Pay Taxes Tuesday, January 26, 2010 By Matt Cover, Staff Writer

(CNSNews.com) – House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D.-Md.) said today in his weekly press briefing that it is good that Americans are making money again because it means they can pay taxes.

Hoyer pointed to the fact that projected federal revenues have stopped declining and have stabilized as evidence that people must be making money in America.

Yeah, and we know their projections are always 100% accurate.

Steny Hoyer has always proclaimed himself to be a "Tax and Spend Democrat". His words, not mine ... spoken directly to me at a "town hall meeting".

I'd call him a socialist. Fewer words ... same meaning.

Tax revenues didn't rise, they stopped falling. Clueless democrats like Hoyer take this as an increase when they are the party in power. They call it a loss when revenues go up slightly less then predicted if there's a republican president. I despise politicians.

The question is whether he was breathing heavily and drooling when he said this...

Laugh if you will, but this concept is still alien to Obama.

He thinks money just waits for him in bank and brokerage accounts and that increasing taxes is the only way to get it.

I’m very sorry to hear that.

Meanwhile, government employment and compensation grows daily. We are on the road to ruin.
