“While deficits are often inflationary and always pernicious, curing them by raising taxes is equivalent to curing an illness by shooting the patient.”

“The expansionary operations of the Second Bank of the United States, coupled with its laxity toward insisting on specie payment by the state banks, impelled a further inflationary expansion of state banks on top of the spectacular enlargement of the central bank. Thus, the number of incorporated state banks rose from 232 in 1816 to 338 in 1818.”

“Deficits are like putting dynamite in the hands of children. They can get out of control very quickly.”

“The problems seem so easy out there on the stump. Deficits shrink with a rhetorical flourish.”

“The biggest reason we know Justin Trudeau will raise taxes is because his never-ending deficits will force him to.”
