"This is my town hall meeting. I set the rules. Let me repeat that one more time. This is my town hall meeting, for you. And you're not going to tell me how to run my Congressional office."
~~Baron Hill, Congressman, 9th Congressional District, Indiana (for now)~~


"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."
~~Margaret Thatcher~~


"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
~~Dr. Adrian Rogers~~


"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." --Cicero - 55 BC
