While I was there, I picked up a couple quotes of value. First by Thomas Sowell:
Nothing is easier, or more emotionally satisfying, than blaming high prices on those who charge them, rather than on those who cause them.
This was said, of course, in reference to everyone's blaming of high gas prices on the greed of the oil companies rather than government interference and taxes. Nevermind that the oil companies make about 9 cents per gallon and government takes around 42.
And this one from our greatest President, Ronald Reagan:
Republicans believe every day is July 4th. Democrats believe every day is April 15th.
The reference here should be obvious.
