It is just socialism

Abraham Lincoln - That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and, hence, is just encouragement to industry and enterprise.

Thomas Jefferson - A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

And here are some quotes from the greatest President of recent history - Ronald Reagan

Government is not a solution to our problem, government is the problem

The federal government has taken too much tax money from the people, too much authority from the states, and too much liberty with the Constitution

I think the best possible social program is a job

Nations crumble from within when the citizenry asks of government those things which the citizenry might better provide for itself

As government expands, liberty contracts

Are you entitled to the fruits of your labor or does government have some presumptive right to spend and spend and spend?

Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it
