Thomas Gallatin is the son of American missionaries. Growing up overseas, he became aware from an early age of the unique privilege he enjoyed as an American citizen. Having lived in two different foreign countries that were both drastically impacted by communism, he learned early the devastating consequences that leftist ideology had upon freedom and human flourishing. As a result, he has spent much of his adult life seeking to shine the light of truth against this evil ideology while espousing the virtues of Liberty as both a history teacher and now a staff analyst at The Patriot Post.

The Foundation
“There is no part of the administration of government that requires extensive information and a thorough knowledge of the principles of political economy, so much as the business of taxation. The man who understands those principles best will be least likely to resort to oppressive expedients, or sacrifice any particular class of citizens to the procurement of revenue. It might be demonstrated that the most productive system of finance will always be the least burdensome.” —Alexander Hamilton (1788)
