There's probably going to be about $100 million spent to buy the property ... for all the roads and everything that goes into that. Guess who has to pay for that? It's going to be us, the taxpayers. We're going to pay that money.
Franco Harris
They lowered it without any justification. Every time you build a house, you're subsidizing the development community by $2,200. This is a cruel hoax on taxpayers.
Dario Marenco
Last year, a little over 51 percent of all individual taxpayers took advantage of e-file. This year, we're expecting it to be close to 55 percent. That's well over 70 million returns.
Bert Dumars
Some of my bigger goals are building relationships and proving myself as someone who's going to be accountable to the parents, staff and taxpayers of the district.
Mark North
They're going town to town, doing a public relations effort to get support. They haven't received that public support, yet they continue to spend taxpayers dollars to support their effort.
Jane Nogaki
Most taxpayers will be able to file on one page and pay at one rate.
Charles Rossotti
The corruption at the UN didn't begin with the Oil for Food scandal and it certainly doesn't end there. The United Nations is nothing more than bureaucracy piled atop waste, wrapped in fraud, covered with abuse -- all of it funded by American taxpayers who foot 22 percent of UN dues -- more than any other nation. We also pour billions of dollars more into the coffers of its related agencies.
Oliver North
You can go back years and place blame, but the bottom line is that we have a budget before us, and we need to be responsible to the taxpayers.
Frank Szeps
The taxpayers should be fairly incensed that their money is going to be put in my pocket. ... It's just absolutely irresponsible to throw the taxpayers' money away.
James Mcelroy
We are planning an aggressive fund-raising campaign so we can reduce the impact of the construction cost on city taxpayers. Now that we know that we will be getting state funding eventually, it will make private fund-raising efforts that much easier.
Deborah Abraham
Is this the right message to be sending to taxpayers in America, Russia, Europe and Japan -- that it's OK to do a stunt like this?
Keith Cowing
State funds are drying up. We preferred more time to educate taxpayers, but it all happened so quickly.
Barry Miller
With the guaranteed savings generated by this project, we'll be able to upgrade facilities and increase energy efficiency at no additional cost to taxpayers.
John Lilly
And it's costing taxpayers more and more, and at some point it has to end.
Jon Bruning
You scratch your head and wonder. They're obviously not doing anybody any good sitting out here at the airport. ... Knowing the conditions people are living in and the need for these houses, seeing them sitting up here in red tape is disconcerting, to say the least, and a total waste of the taxpayers' money.
Dennis Ramsey
They picked us because we were flexible enough and strong enough. This whole process is a highly secure, confidential project, and something that we've gone into with our eyes wide open. ... We expect to be successful for the taxpayers.
Tom Penaluna
While this is unfortunate and something we did not want to do, in order to stabilize the sewer utility this increase is necessary. This administration needs to stabilize the sewer utility rate so if we are pressed with an emergency we do not have to go back to the taxpayers for a further increase.
David Donnelly
The findings in this report should push DNR to better calculate reclamation bonds to protect Alaska's taxpayers and mining communities.
David Chambers
In my own personal opinion, that should be a state or federal issue. You deal with this through Medicaid. It should not be done on the backs of the taxpayers in Pasco.
Bill Bunting
Taxpayers who can itemize and fail to do so are literally leaving millions of dollars of overpaid taxes with the government.
Mark Steber
The new rule is much more friendly to taxpayers. Only sales of more than $500,000 for married couples and $250,000 for single people have to be reported. So you don't need to keep records unless you think you home may sell for more than that amount.
Frank Degen
Roughly 13 million American taxpayers filed their tax returns over the Internet last year and the industry is looking forward to another year of double-digit growth.
Todd Taylor
This approach may be legitimate with taxpayers who are known evaders. But it's very upsetting when a company's affairs are actually in order - especially for individual officers who can be made personally liable. There have been cases of people being wrongfully arrested.
Carolyn Freeman
He was very outgoing. He got along with everybody and was there for the education, the kids and the taxpayers.
Jack Kauffman
The reforms would cost not only employers and employees, but also taxpayers substantially, up to over a 3-per-cent increase for property taxpayers.
Roger Anderson
The burden shouldn't always fall on the taxpayers of Union City; everyone new to the city should pay taxes.
Frank Alonzo
It is designed to be fair to municipalities, both large and small, and I believe it will do that. Candidly, the thinking was not to provide a bonus to towns. The thinking was to provide a bonus to taxpayers.
Robert Genuario
This bill roots out excess lender subsidies in the student loan program while increasing student access to loans. It's a win-win for students and taxpayers.
Don Seymour
It's precisely the wrong direction to take. I'm befuddled by this because this was a governor who had recognized that pension costs are unsustainable for taxpayers.
Jon Coupal
It was appalling to me, when these players are supposed to be role models. It occurred to me that this is not what the taxpayers of California are supposed to be paying for.
Assemblyman Jay La Suer
There is a lot that needs to be done to bring us up to speed in terms of technology. However, this budget is aiming to keep things as they are because of the high systemic costs related to such things as fuel, as well as the considerable debt service taxpayers will have to incur again this year.
Allen Fossbender
It just does not make sense to waste taxpayers' money in this way.
Hampton Dellinger
The exemption amounts change every year, and standard deduction amounts change every year. These are the two biggest changes that most taxpayers have to contend with.
Len Scholl
This decision paves the way for further habitat destruction by special interests, leaving taxpayers to pay the bill for cleaning up the mess.
Ernie Niemi
We are citizens we are taxpayers. Do something.
Ernestine Wise
That was a rule that was changed probably for the convenience of the taxpayers.
Eric Erickson
We know estimates to build a new jail run about $90 million and would cost $25 million to operate, ... We owe it to the taxpayers of Oakland County to explore other options.
Eric Wilson
It's not a tax. It's a utility. It is a fee proportional to their usage. If the utility is doing the job right, (taxpayers) should pay less.
Eric Thompson
We can't give taxpayers' money to such a government.
Elmar Brok
I feel we need to protect the taxpayers.
Elbra Wedgeworth
People who prepare false or fraudulent tax returns unfairly shift the tax burden to honest taxpayers. The Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service are working vigorously to stop systematic abuses of the tax system.
Eileen J. O'connor
The Department of Justice is firmly committed to shutting down fraudulent trust schemes that cost the treasury and law-abiding taxpayers millions of dollars each year.
Eileen J. O'connor
The Justice Department is working vigorously to stop the preparation and filing of the false or fraudulent returns that unfairly shift the tax burden to honest American taxpayers. People who hire others to prepare their returns should review their returns carefully to make sure that they are true, correct, and complete.
Eileen J. O'connor
These are hard decisions, and I certainly feel for the affected employees, ... At the same time, the loan board has a responsibility to taxpayers, and to fostering the long-term health of the airline industry. Given our conclusion that the business plan submitted by the company is financially unsound, I believe it best not to approve the United proposal.
Edward Gramlich
Two, I had to look at the bigger picture. I got him convicted. He is a convicted felon. He is out of office. The Whitley County Jail will reopen. It will save taxpayers thousands of dollars. It is a decision I had to make.
Eddie Montgomery
This isn't petty. This is a test they asked taxpayers to pay a lot of money for ... There shouldn't be any hiding anything here.
Ed Parkinson
The simple question is, can we spend ($400 million) or $500 million in taxpayers' money in a better way?
