“We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle”
Winston Churchill
“The latest weapon to be used by the government to increase the tax burden by stealth is the increase of public monopoly tariffs following the removal of a government subsidy.”
Prof. Edward Scicluna MEP
“The latest weapon to be used by the government to increase the tax burden by stealth is the increase of public monopoly tariffs following the removal of a government subsidy. This has been observed with tariff increases of electricity and water last October, the price hike of gas as of April 1 and the soon-to-be introduced drainage tariff.”
“There is a direct link between the federal tax cut of 2001 and state tax increases in 2003. When the federal government's mistakes force states to raise their taxes, it not only robs Peter to pay Paul, but it hurts hard-working families and it undermines our economy's strength.”
Senator John Kerry
“Government is taxing the country dry”
Joseph Muscat
“Taxes grow without rain”
Jewish Proverb
“Double taxation is illegal in the United States yet everything you buy has taxes on it which comes from money that has already been taxed once.”
