More quotes by Mitch Daniels
The true enemies of Social Security and Medicare are those who defend an imploding status quo.
Mitch Daniels
All great enterprises have a pearl of faith at their core, and this must be ours: that Americans are still a people born to liberty. That they retain the capacity for self-government. That, addressed as free-born, autonomous men and women of God-given dignity, they will rise yet again to drive back a mortal enemy.
Mitch Daniels
Our fiscal ruin and resulting loss of world leadership will, in their [liberals'] eyes, be not a tragic event but a desirable one.
Mitch Daniels
And before our current legislature adjourns, we intend to become the first state of full and true choice by saying to every low and middle-income Hoosier family, if you think a non-government school is the right one for your child, you're as entitled to that option as any wealthy family here's a voucher, go sign up.
Mitch Daniels
If we don't believe in Americans, who will? I do believe. I've seen it in the people of our very typical corner of the nation.
Mitch Daniels
As Republicans, our first concern is for those waiting tonight to begin or resume the climb up life's ladder.
Mitch Daniels
The public is increasingly disgusted with a steady diet of defamation, and prepared to reward those who refrain from it.
Mitch Daniels
Our educational results lag behind other states, and other nations, but worse still, behind the potential of the kids and the devoted teachers in our classrooms.
Mitch Daniels
[Obama's reelection] would subject the country to what might be a fatal last dose of statism.
Mitch Daniels
When business leaders ask me what they can do for Indiana, I always reply: 'Make money. Go make money. That's the first act of corporate citizenship. If you do that, you'll have to hire someone else, and you'll have enough profit to help one of those non-profits we're so proud of.'
Mitch Daniels
I took a vow of political celibacy.
Mitch Daniels
Among the weeds choking out growth and good government are the hundreds of boards, commissions, and advisory committees that have sprouted over the years. They devour time, money, and energy far beyond any real contribution they make.
Mitch Daniels
We designed both our state employee health plans and the one we created for low-income Hoosiers as Health Savings Accounts, and now in the tens of thousands these citizens are proving that they are fully capable of making smart, consumerist choices about their own health care.
Mitch Daniels
The failure of national economic policy is costing us more than jobs it has begun to weaken that uniquely American spirit of risk-taking, large ambition, and optimism about the future. We must rally them now to bold departures that rebuild our national morale as well as our material prosperity.
Mitch Daniels
If freedom's best friends cannot unify around a realistic, actionable program of fundamental change, one that attracts and persuades a broad majority of our fellow citizens, big change will not come
Mitch Daniels
Our main task is not to see that people of great wealth add to it, but that those without much money have a greater chance to earn some.
Mitch Daniels
The federal government now spends one of every four dollars in the entire economy. It borrows one of every three dollars it spends. No nation, no entity, large or small, public or private, can thrive, or survive intact, with debts as huge as ours.
Mitch Daniels
If our nation goes over a financial Niagara, we won't have much strength and, eventually, we won't have peace. We are currently borrowing the entire defense budget from foreign investors. Within a few years, we will be spending more on interest payments than on national security. That is not, as our military friends say, a 'robust strategy.'
Mitch Daniels
I certainly believe in limited government but protecting children against injury abuse is certainly inside my sphere of things that the government should do.
Mitch Daniels
The president's grand experiment in trickle-down government has held back rather than sped economic recovery. He seems to sincerely believe we can build a middle class out of government jobs paid for with borrowed dollars.
