Politicians are dumb, but they can count to 50% plus one.

There is some talk of lowering (the income tax), and they will have to. People are not making enough to pay it.

Image
Elections are a good deal like marriages. There's no accounting for anyone's taste. Every time we see a bridegroom we wonder why she ever picked him, and it's the same with public officials.

Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day. Never miss a good chance to shut up.

If you got a dollar, soak it away, put it in a savings bank, bury it, do anything but spend it. Spending when we didn't have it put us where we are today. Saving when we've got it will get us back to where we was before we went cuckoo.

Our constitution protects aliens, drunks and U.S. Senators.
Will Rogers
Image
I love horses and I only ask-don't let me know which one we are eating today.
Will Rogers

A country can get more real joy out of just hollering for their freedom than they can if they get it.
Will Rogers
Image
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Will Rogers
Image
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance.

Every man gets an opportunity once in a lifetime.

Spinnin' a rope is fun if your neck ain't in it

The crime of taxation is not in the taking it, it's in the way that it's spent.

Invest in inflation. It is the only thing going up.
