THEY’RE YOUR DIMES
"A good thing to rwneffl
her,” Bays the Abilene, Kansas,
Daily Reflector, "in these days
of all kinds of “federal aid*' is
that the federal government
hasn’t got a dime that it
doesn’t take away from the
people, ao it can’t give any-
thing to a school system, build-
ing program, county welfare,
flood control, crop surpluses or
anything else, without first
having taken it away from
the people.”
In this gigantic federal pro-
cess of taking and giving, a
large chunk of the local tax-
payer’* dollar goes to support
the bureaucracy which pro-
vide! “givo away” service* that
in most cases could be better
handled locally in the first
place. Moreover, the money
that is taken from the people
and returned in part under the
guise of "federal aid” is to a
large extent extracted from the
taxpayers indirectly. The next
time you hear the political cry
for a higher tax on a business
or an industry, you should re-
member that the latter1 are like
government too, in one respect
They have no money except
what they take from consum-
ers in payment for products or
services. Their profits are eith-
1 er regulated by law or by com-
petition. When additional taxes
are levied against them they
are forced to become collection
agencies for government The
taxes are passed along to their
customers.
The old saying that you can’t
get something for nothing is
still true, even though many of
us act like we don’t believe it
