Taxpayers Quotations
Taxpayers Quotes from:
-
Became Quotes
When I became governor, spending actually increased 28 percent my first term. Revenue increased 42 percent my first term without raising anybody's taxes. We did it because we had more taxpayers with more taxable income. That's how you get the revenue up. We did that without raising anybody's taxes.
-
Degree Quotes
The obsessive focus on a college degree has served neither taxpayers nor students well. Only 35 percent of students starting a four-year degree program will graduate within four years, and less than 60 percent will graduate within six years. Students who haven't graduated within six years probably never will.
-
Benefits Quotes
But, at the end of the day, we need to represent the taxpayers who have made enormous sacrifices. Many have lost their jobs. Many of them have seen their companies - they don't have a pension - they have seen their companies cut the match for their 401(k). They have seen their health care benefits be shredded.
-
Aspects Quotes
School districts around the country, and the taxpayers that support them, have a moral right to the information the NFL might have concerning the medical aspects of the game, and to assess the risks to the students in their charge. Colleges have a moral right to that information for the same reasons.
-
Accelerate Quotes
Now we've got to accelerate the transition away from dirty energy. Rather than subsidize the past, we should invest in the future - especially in communities that rely on fossil fuels. That's why I'm going to push to change the way we manage our oil and coal resources, so that they better reflect the costs they impose on taxpayers and our planet.
-
Affordable Quotes
We are pleased to see that Maryland legislators stepped up and made a statement about what kind of businesses they want in their state. Marylanders deserve businesses that provide for their employees, pay a decent wage and provide affordable health care, not those that expect taxpayers to foot the bill for their bottom-line corporate profits. They get that with Fair Share Health Care.
-
Believe Quotes
We believe that California taxpayers deserve the right to independently and privately prepare and file their own taxes. Our concern has been that this program targets predominantly low-income and minority taxpayers who may be put at a disadvantage by getting what looks like a bill from the state.
-
Alone Quotes
Whether they choose to let pros prepare their taxes, or try the latest computer assistance, or go it alone with pen and calculator, Americans are paying a dear price in money and time because of our complex tax system. Recent tax relief laws have helped many taxpayers keep more of the money they've worked for all year, but the work of filing their federal returns at tax time has become a tiresome chore.
-
Apparently Quotes
The facilities are being reviewed and apparently there are a lot of improvements needed. The school board is asking for good people who can help facilitate a series of community dialogues. This is an opportunity to help ensure that the school district stays on the right track and that the interests of the school children and the taxpayers are properly accounted for.
-
Certain Quotes
Many times, certain deductible expenses are overlooked. Be sure to keep track of all of your travel expenses, including transportation, parking fees, ferry fees, tolls, lodging, meals and other incidental expenses. An important point to remember about military differential pay is that while the income is taxable, this pay is not considered wages and is not subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes. So it's important that military taxpayers ensure that their employers treat these earnings correctly.
-
Care Quotes
Seniors and people with disabilities overwhelmingly prefer home and community care options to nursing homes when possible. Family Care has proven people can get the long-term care they need and prefer, and that this can save money for taxpayers by helping people stay healthy and independent.
-
Arena Quotes
She's right on target with her core principles. Taxpayers should have some, but not too many, choices. The pension arena is a good example. There are too many choices of plans. The same is true of education. Here there are two different credits, as well as various deductions for the same purpose.
-
Affected Quotes
Obviously, we have suffered a reduction in values in the affected areas, and we need to make sure reductions don't trigger increased taxes on the other taxpayers in the parish, ... That's not a way to get people to stay, and it's not a way to get people to come back. To the extent that it's unclear in the law, the more it needs to be clarified.
-
Backs Quotes
My definition, a definition in the drill books from the time that General Von Steuben wrote the regulations for General George Washington, the definition of the object of military training is success in battle... It wouldn't be any sense to have a military organization on the backs of the American taxpayers with any other definition.
-
Afraid Quotes
I am thankful for the opportunities that allowed me to work my way up in a large company. Now I want to give back to the community where I went to school. I ask lots of questions, perform lots of research, and challenge myself to always be on top of the issues. I am interested in government, and I want to utilize my training and my experience to improve our community. And I am not afraid to speak up on behalf of the taxpayers in my district.

Bang Quotes
Basically, taxpayers would pay $2.4 billion in higher taxes to get four percent more of our kids into preschool. That just doesn't seem like a very good bang for the buck. Rather than focus resources on the state's most pressing needs or helping parents of low-income families who need the most help sending their kids to preschool, this flawed measure creates a subsidy for rich and middle-income families that already send their kids to preschool.
