The First Amendment says nothing about taxation; the only thing it says
about religion is that Congress shall make no laws establishing a
religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...

The public ridiculed Nixon for his attempts to establish an 'imperial
presidency', but the same public rolled over and went to sleep when the
Reagans actually DID it...
Remember, it was during the Reagan Administration that the savings and
loan scandal was brewing, and our current boy Bill was benefitting from a
cozy relationship with the Administration and both that savings and loan
confidence game, and drug running thru that airport in Mena...
Reagan is HARDLY an icon to quote on either morality OR fiscal
responsibility...

And what of all the people who are ready and willing to work, but find
that due to the government being in bed with big business, jobs have been
shipped overseas, and those that remain here are now being staffed by
temp workers who don't have to be paid what perm workers are paid, plus
they don't have to pay for sick days, vacations, insurance benefits,
etc.?
