For taxpayers, however, it’s [pay equity] a rip-off. And it has nothing to do with gender. Both men and women taxpayers will pay additional money to both men and women in the civil service. That’s why the federal government should scrap its ridiculous pay equity law.

Stephen Harper

The real reason to abolish departments like Energy and Education is not to promote efficiency, nor even to save taxpayers’ money. It is that many agencies perform functions that are not Federal responsibility. The founders delegated to the Government only strictly defined authority in Article I, Section 8, of the Constitution. Search the entire Constitution, and you will find no authorization for Congress to subsidize the arts, finance and regulate education or invest tax revenues in energy research.

America needs a strong, rational, positive, practical conservative movement. It needs that bulwark against liberal delusion and hubris.

Astrid Lindgren

While I can see how the government has, at times, wasted taxpayers' money, and I can admit that too often its programs are ineffective, I also can see the good that government does.

Tony Campolo

The tax money belongs to the taxpayers. It doesn't belong to the bureaucracy. And government is not a welfare system.

I have my strong views and opinions. I really want to transform Illinois government because this state is failing the taxpayers and the children.

Bruce Rauner

See, when the government spends money, it creates jobs; whereas when the money is left in the hands of taxpayers, God only knows what they do with it. Bake it into pies, probably. Anything to avoid creating jobs.

Dave Barry

When we leave money in the hands of taxpayers, they buy things, they pay taxes, they grow government.
