[Mr. Jeeves]

Well, I bought a Lexus in January...guess I'm a villain. But Democrats would have us believe that small businesses really create jobs by taking out government loans, not as a result of reduced taxes. They want to collect the money first, and then hand it back in the form of loans and subsidies, just to be sure the small businesses "spend it right".

Leave it to Tommy Daschle to insult muffler shops!

The last go-around I purchased a muffler for my old pickup. Not only was I happy, but so was the muffler shop and innumerable town residents.

Didn't see a lot of new Lexus cars appear. But I'm sure they'll need mufflers someday!

"In general the art of government consists in
taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give to
the other." --Voltaire

"The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money." -- Alexis de Tocqueville

And of course, the classic:

"It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise revenues in the long run is to cut rates now. The experience of a number of European countries has borne this out. This country's own experience with tax reduction has borne this out. The reason is that only full employment can balance the budget and tax reduction can pave the way to full employment. The purpose of cutting taxes is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve
the more prosperous, expanding economy which will bring a budget surplus." --John F. Kennedy, December 1962

Earning just $71,800 annually puts you among the wealthiest 20 percent of all Americans. According to some liberals, this means you're rich.

There was a time when this favorite Democrat mantra (tax cut for the rich) only referred to our entrepreneurs, investors, and employers, now these socialists want to include our factory workers, acountants, middle and upper managers.
