Taxes Going Up
Rare honesty from the
New York Times. As they conclude:
Americans have made it clear that they want a certain kind of government, one that can field a strong military and also maintain popular programs like Medicare. Yet we are not paying nearly enough taxes to maintain those programs. Even major changes to the health care system — the single most important step for closing the budget gap — will not close it entirely. Taxes must rise, too.
They make a weak excuse:
Think of it this way: A tax increase isn’t so much a barrier to a society becoming richer as it is a result of a society becoming richer.
So there it is. Your taxes will definitely go up because democrats and their leader, Barry Obama, will make it happen, and they blame US for wanting the things they will push upon us. That simple.
