“The extravagant expenditure of public money is an evil not to be measured by the value of that money to the people who are taxed for it.” – Chester A. Arthur

The thing is that as far back as we go in US history, we find the Democrats wading thigh deep in corruption and excessive taxation and the Republicans involved in attempting to reduce these burdens from the people of our great nation. From the Trails of Tears and Dread, to the formation of the Confederated States of America to keep slavery, to Jim Crow, to the overall failure to support easing the tax burden, we find the hand of the Democratic party heavy on weighing down on the people of our great nation. This is true, however much they protest to the contrary.
