What’s So Goofy About Eliminating Taxes? – LewRockwell
By Laurence M. Vance
*** begin quote ***
As usual, Ron Paul gets it right:
It is common to describe tax cuts as “costing” the government. Saying tax cuts cost the government assumes that the government has a moral claim over an individual’s earnings, so anytime those running the government allow individuals to keep more of their money the rulers are being generous. The truth is that income belongs to the people who earn it and that saying tax cuts cost the government is like saying burglar alarms cost thieves. Therefore, any legislation that cuts taxes is a victory for liberty.
*** end quote ***
If the politicians and bureaucrats merely cut taxes, but don’t address Gooferment spending, then it just means bigger deficits, means more borrowing, means more money printing by the FED, means more currency debasement, means more inflation.
It’s just fraud being perpetrated on “We, The Sheeple”.
I’d prefer that the amount cut from taxes is immediately cut from the spending. Accross the board on a percentage basis.
I would further favor, any deficit means that the incumbents in Congress are ineligible for reelection. Bet that would fix the problem.
Also, taxpayers get a veto on all spending bills!
We need a third “house” elected by taxpayers, who get one vote for every dollar they pay in taxes.
Argh!
