"It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what it will be tomorrow. [especially tax laws that aren’t common sense like civil and criminal law]

[Quote No.8011] Need Area: Money > Tax
"The forces of a capitalist society, if left unchecked, tend to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. [therefore this has justified increased taxes on the rich for redistribution to the needy, without realising that this income differential is more about age - lower income while young and inexperienced and therefore less productive and higher income when older and more experienced and therefore more productive, than it is about class - which was the case in the non-free feudal political economic system that preceded the development of free market capitalism. It also shows the dangers of misunderstanding or misusing statistics for political purposes.]" - Jawaharial Nehru
(1889 - 1964), Indian nationalist politician, Prime Minister from 1947 until his death in 1964. Before the partition (the division of British India into India and Pakistan), he led the socialist wing of the nationalist Congress Party, and was second in influence only to Mahatma Gandhi. He was imprisoned nine times by the British 1921-45 for political activities. As prime minister from the creation of the dominion (later republic) of India in August 1947, he originated the idea of non-alignment (neutrality towards major powers). His daughter was Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. His sister, Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit was the UN General Assembly's first female president 1953-54.

[Quote No.13162] Need Area: Money > Tax
"To take from one because it is thought that his own industry and that of his father's has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association--the guarantee to every one of a free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." - Thomas Jefferson

[Quote No.13166] Need Area: Money > Tax
"In short, it is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low, and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now...The purpose of cutting taxes now is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve the more prosperous, expanding economy which can bring a budget surplus." - John F.

[Quote No.13236] Need Area: Money > Tax
"But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." - Frederic Bastiat

[Quote No.13244] Need Area: Money > Tax
"The measures of the welfare state are means for redistributing the wealth. The recipients may be the aged who receive Medicare, foreign nations who are given tractors and money in foreign aid, urban dwellers for whom new houses are built, farmers who sell their grain to the government at a subsidized price, private or government school beneficiaries of state and Federal grants, children who receive free or subsidized lunches, or those businesses whose projects are government financed. Whatever the means of redistribution may be, the recipient receives what has been seized by violence in taxes collected from others. He receives the fruits of legal plunder. [This can be taken too far resulting in a disincentive for risk taking and then it is counter-producive. Some though is good as one-it allows the disadvantaged an opportunity to get into a position to help themselves and then others and two-it helps alleviate the disparity in wealth that fuels revolutions.]" - Francis E. Mahaffy
