I don’t support higher rates for ANYONE.
BUT, we’ve got a class warrior in the White House who insists on creating the appearance that he’s going to stick it to the rich. The republicans hold the House, that’s it. Whether we like it or not there is going to have to be compromise.
Why would anyone on this site welcome higher taxes on all?
We take an agreement that spares some from further coerced contribution to the govt. waste and move on from there.
I understand that my payroll taxes are going up regardless, but I don’t need the federal taxes going up as well so it can be doled out to dysfunctional leeches and further fund an expansion of government’s hand.
You welcome higher taxes for all because it puts the pain everywhere, where it truly belongs. If the burden is never placed on the parasite, it thrives.
If we continue to allow a large portion of our population to malinger, then we will never get out of this hole!
