Here are some quotes from Journalist Judy King:
Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.
Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?
One hundred Senators, 435 Congressmen, one President and nine Supreme Court justices....545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.
What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human begin would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits. The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.
If the tax code is unfair, it’s because they (Congress) want it unfair.
If the budget is in the red, it’s because they want it in the red.
If they do not receive Social Security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it’s because they want it that way.
