Famous quotes by Mitch Daniels:

"I don't want to go around beating up on small business people around Indiana who I think are just scrambling to try to serve their customers, ... If we ever see any credible evidence of somebody abusing the system, then we'll act. But, I've been looking at it every day and the Attorney General doesn't report it and I don't see it."

"If they don't act, I would ask the legislature to review it again."

"I think that the Board of Education ought to revisit this issue,"

"A straight answer now is that I don't believe it would be a responsible step, ... The state is still coming out of bankruptcy, and it would not provide dramatic relief to any individual."

"We stand to gain up to several thousand more jobs at the Defense Finance and Accounting Service center, ... and the commission listened to our recommendations for Crane and saved half of the jobs that were recommended for transfer elsewhere."

"Government does not create jobs, it only creates the conditions that make jobs more or less likely."

"The state of our state needs serious attention."

"So tonight I propose one more step that I would rather not propose. I ask the most fortunate among us, those citizens earning over $100,000 per year, for one year, to pay an additional one percent on the income they receive."

"And overhanging all our difficulties is the simple, brute fact that our state's public finances are in ruin. We have outspent our income year after year."

"Among the weeds choking out growth and good government are the hundreds of boards, commissions, and advisory committees that have sprouted over the years. They devour time, money, and energy far beyond any real contribution they make."

"No enterprise, small or large, public or private, can remain self-governing, let alone successful, so deeply in hock to others as we are about to be."

"If we don't believe in Americans, who will? I do believe. I've seen it in the people of our very typical corner of the nation."

"The federal government now spends one of every four dollars in the entire economy. It borrows one of every three dollars it spends. No nation, no entity, large or small, public or private, can thrive, or survive intact, with debts as huge as ours."

"A one-time tax does not get figured into people's investment decisions."

"When they call the slightest spending reductions 'painful', we will say 'If government spending prevents pain, why are we suffering so much of it?' And 'If you want to experience real pain, just stay on the track we are on.'"

"All great enterprises have a pearl of faith at their core, and this must be ours: that Americans are still a people born to liberty. That they retain the capacity for self-government. That, addressed as free-born, autonomous men and women of God-given dignity, they will rise yet again to drive back a mortal enemy."

"We believe it wrong ever to take a dollar from a free citizen without a very necessary public purpose, because each such taking diminishes the freedom to spend that dollar as its owner would prefer."

"When business leaders ask me what they can do for Indiana, I always reply: 'Make money. Go make money. That's the first act of corporate citizenship. If you do that, you'll have to hire someone else, and you'll have enough profit to help one of those non-profits we're so proud of.'"

"As Republicans, our first concern is for those waiting tonight to begin or resume the climb up life's ladder."

"Our educational results lag behind other states, and other nations, but worse still, behind the potential of the kids and the devoted teachers in our classrooms."
