„Inflacja jest tą formą podatku, którą można nałożyć bez ustawy.”
Inflation is the one form of taxation that can be imposed without legislation. (ang.)
I am in favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse, for any reason, whenever it's possible. (...) Because I believe the big problem is not taxes, the big problem is spending. I believe that government is too large and intrusive, that we do not get our money's worth for the roughly 40 percent of our income that is spent by government.... How can we ever cut government down to size? I believe there is one and only one way: the way parents control spendthrift children, cutting their allowance. For government, that means cutting taxes. (ang.)

Governments never learn. Only people learn. (ang.)
