Thought To Ponder

...The problem has been developing for many years: a sort of economic alcoholism in which society has depended upon government to solve all its problems. Governments have promised to do away with unemployment, to eradicate poverty, to mitigate the pain of old age and sickness, even to ease the consequences of banking and business mistakes. Such irresistible promises! It was exactly what everyone wanted. We became economic alcoholics, dependent on government, and have had no concept of who will pay the price for this happy addiction. (from a speech at Athens College in 1984)

 Video: Dishonest Demagoguery on Tax Havens 
21 July 2009
Dr. Dan Mitchell

Dr. Dan Mitchell of the Cato Institute has released another video for the Center for Freedom and Prosperity.

"Politicians who like higher taxes would like to shut down so-called tax havens so they can set up an "OPEC for politicians" and implement higher tax rates. Yet since all the evidence shows that low-tax jurisdictions are very beneficial for the global economy, the politicians often resort to dishonest demagoguery. This educational video from the Center for Freedom and Prosperity debunks President Obama's two most common smears against tax havens."
