Margaret Thatcher — "The government has no source of money other than the money people earn themselve…"
The government has no source of money other than the money people earn themselves. If government wants to spend more, it can only do so by borrowing your savings or by taxing you more. And it's no good thinking that someone else will pay. That someone else is you. There is no such thing as public money; there is only taxpayers' money.
