A fan of Montana 1st News submitted the following “quotes” for thought and we’re sure glad they did. Words have never rung truer. Enjoy.
Here’s my “fair share” of the day to you:
“I don’t like the income tax. Every time we talk about these taxes we get around to the idea of ‘from each according to his capacity and to each according to his needs’.
THAT’S SOCIALISM.
It’s written into the Communist Manifesto. Maybe we ought to see that every person who gets a tax return receives a copy of the Communist Manifesto with it so he can see what’s happening to him.”
— T. Coleman Andrews
Commissioner of Internal Revenue

“To tax the community for the advantage of a class is not protection, it is plunder.”
— Benjamin Disraeli
(1804-1881) Prime Minister of England, British statesman, novelist
“Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery.”
— Calvin Coolidge
(1872-1933) 30th US President
