Famous quotes containing the words state, property, tax and/or incentives:

    We hear the Secretary of State boasting of his brinkmanship—the art of bringing us to the edge of the abyss.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    No man is by nature the property of another. The defendant is, therefore, by nature free.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    Rumble thy bellyful! Spit, fire! Spout, rain!
    Nor rain, wind, thunder, fire are my daughters.
    I tax you not, you elements, with unkindness;
    I never gave you kingdom, called you children.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.
    Gus Hall (b. 1910)
