Quote by Arthur Godfrey
I'm proud to be paying taxes in the United States. The only thing is -- I could be just as proud for half the money.
Summary
This quote captures the sentiment of pride in being a taxpayer in the United States, but also expresses the desire for a reduction in the amount of money paid. It suggests that the individual feels a sense of national pride but believes that the tax burden is excessive and wishes for a more efficient use of those funds.
