Entry: Greenspan's Gambits Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/greenspans_gambits#5396 Post contents: Andy Capp sed: "When God tells us <<[r]ender therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s; and to God, the things that are God’s>> He is telling us to pay taxes, because we couldn’t have done anything better with the money than the government anyway; the money is a secular object, a tool to be used, and why bother risking our lives for something inconsequential?"
