I haven't gone to mydd for awhile and I'm happy to see the nice formatting along with Benjamin Franklin's picture.  I'd just like to throw down some of his great thoughts.
"It would be thought a hard government that should tax its people one tenth part"
"No nation was ever ruined by trade."
"The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself."

"Would you live with ease? Do what you ought, not what you please."
"No man e'er was glorious, who was not laborious."
"Jack Little sow'd little, & little he'll reap."
And my new favorite:
"the Taxes are indeed very heavy, and if those laid on by the Government were the only Ones we had to pay, we might more easily discharge them; but we have many others, and much more grievous to some of us. We are taxed twice as much by our Idleness, three times as much by our Pride, and four times as much by our Folly, and from these Taxes the Commissioners cannot ease or deliver us by allowing an Abatement. However let us hearken to good Advice, and something may be done for us; God helps them that help themselves"
