Patriotic quotes of the day:
“It’s really American to avoid paying taxes, legally,” said Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, on Tuesday.
I bet Graham would like a take-back.
Mitt Romney in MT, regarding his reception at the NAACP: “…If they (Obamacare supporters at the NAACP) want more stuff from government tell them to go vote for the other guy — more free stuff. But don’t forget nothing is really free. It has to paid for by people in the private sector creating goods and services.”
Government creates zero value, so it’s not a part of the economy. Government workers don’t pay taxes, so they’re not really working. All public goods and services are welfare. Obamacare is all about handouts – except when it’s about health insurance exchanges and “taxes.” (Hey, now. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that he’s only referring to the subsidy portions of the act–tax credits towards the purchase of insurance for those earning less than four times the poverty line , and expanded Medicaid eligibility. OK. Now recall who he’s referring to in this statement. Doh.)
Patriots, fellow Americans. Gronk, too.
