"What we don't need is more spending,..." - Quote by Ronald Reagan

“Revolution means democracy in today's world, not the enslavement of peoples to the corrupt and degrading horrors of totalitarianism”

“Once people who have been deprived of basic freedom taste a little of it, they want all of it.”

“We meant to change a nation, and instead, we changed a world.”

“For decades, we have piled deficit upon deficit, mortgaging our future and our children's future for the temporary convenience of the present. To continue this long trend is to guarantee tremendous social, cultural, political, and economic upheavals. You and I, as individuals, can, by borrowing, live beyond our means, but for only a limited period of time. Why, then, should we think that collectively, as a nation, we are not bound by that same limitation?”

“Someone must stand up to those who say, "Here's the key, there's the Treasury, just take as many of those hard-earned tax dollars as you want."”

“Why should [Uncle Sam] send 20 billion dollars down there [South America], which is going to go down the drain every time you have a racial in - incident in this country?”

“It is a way to take people's wealth from them without having to openly raise taxes. Inflation is the most universal tax of all.”

“Short term, the most important thing is to put people back to work ... If they're working, that means they're paying taxes, that means that they're buying goods and services - and the economy, instead of being on a downward spiral, starts back up on an upward spiral.”

“If you look at the Forbes 400, they are paying a lower rate, accounting payroll taxes, than their secretary or - whomever around their office.”
