Government must shrink, so individual liberties can be restored.

"Geithner: Taxes on Small Business Must Rise So Government Doesnt Shrink " Hey Timmy, that's the objective. Fire all you assholes and set Americans and American enterprise free.
PS: It's interesting that you want to increase taxes, but you yourself should be in jail yourself for tax fraud.

No, that's right. I agree with that, said Geithner. But just to put it in perspective, it's important to recognize why are we doing this. You know, our deficits are 10 percent of GDP, higher than they've been since any time in the postwar period really. We have a big hole to dig out of, and we have to figure out how to do that in a way that's balanced, good for growth, fair to people as a whole. Translation: blah, blah, blah...blah, blah..growth...fair, aack....

And to have that happen with smaller taxes, would be a double win.

Geithner exhibiting the ratchet approach to leftism - where the ratchet only goes in one direction: bigger govt.
Its corallary is the mudslim approach to "their" lands: Once mudslim, ALWAYS mudslim.

“...we have to figure out how to do that in a way that’s balanced, good for growth, fair to people as a whole.
Mighty fair of you.
Let’s take that a step further and ask all Americans to contribute their fair share.
On Food Stamps? 10%
On section 8? 10%
On welfare? 10%
Disability? 10%
Not working? 10% of median income tax obligation under my new plan.

You got that right...but we’re peons. They know much better and we should never expect their empire to get cut or eliminated. They have no problems at all burdening everyone else but themselves.
