“The budget should be balanced,
the Treasury should be refilled,
public debt should be reduced,
the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled,
and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt.
People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
– Cicero – 55 BC
What have we learned since then?
Evidently nothing!
TaxMama Note: Although this quote is attributed to Cicero, it’s not really his. But it IS eloquent and timely.
