Saffire Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 My favorite president (as an Anarchist) was Calvin Coolidge. Because he didn't do hardly ANYTHING, which was awesome. And he had some awesome quotes, too: Civilization and profit go hand in hand. Calvin Coolidge Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery. Calvin Coolidge Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong. Calvin Coolidge Duty is not collective; it is personal. Calvin Coolidge Four-fifths of all our troubles would disappear, if we would only sit down and keep still. Calvin Coolidge My favorite quote is the last one, lol.

Matter-Eater Lad Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Have you seen the Mises Institute video about the "Depression of 1920 and why you haven't heard about it"? I believe they talk about him and how he cut taxes and spending during economic downturn in the 20's and it stopped the depression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh42 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 YouTube - Why You've Never Heard of the Great Depression of 1920[/url] I did hear about it back when all the tea parties and stuff were going on and I actually thought we could change the government.

Things take time. People have to learn the hard way before they make the right choice. I think we'll swing far to the left before we come to our senses and move then to smaller government based upon the Constitution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
