Famous quotes containing the words local and/or taxation:

    “His farm was “grounds,” and not a farm at all;
    His house among the local sheds and shanties
    Rose like a factor’s at a trading station.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “The Government is able to afford a suitable army and a suitable navy. It may maintain them without the slightest danger to the Republic or the cause of free institutions, and fear of additional taxation ought not to change a proper policy in this regard.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
