Godfrey Bloom on Government and Taxation in the EU

“Mr. President, I'm minded actually to quote the great American philosopher Murray Rothbard here that the state is an institution of theft writ large. Tax is just about a system where politicians and bureaucrats steal money from their citizens to squander in the most disgraceful manner. This place is no exception.” - Godfrey Bloom
