"You have to starve the Beast. That's one of the most important things about tax cuts. If you leave the money in Washington, it's going to be spent"

About this Quote
This quote by Steve Chabot is referring to the idea of cutting taxes in order to decrease government costs. The expression "starve the Beast" is a metaphor for lowering the quantity of cash available to the federal government, which in turn will restrict their ability to invest. Chabot is suggesting that if the federal government is given more money, it will be spent, and so the only way to minimize federal government spending is to reduce the quantity of money available to them. This can be done by cutting taxes, which will lower the amount of money the government needs to invest. Chabot is suggesting that cutting taxes is an efficient way to decrease federal government costs and limit the quantity of cash offered to the government.
