If the Dems make real significant changes to entitlements that will have a real effect on the future, then I am willing to go along with tax increases. Something has to be done. It’s not the best thing but the alternative is worse.
Only if the entitlement changes come first and are made permanent. The GOP has been swindled too many times by the RATS in which they agree to a budget deal, only to see the tax increases become immediate and the spending cuts never materialize.
None of that crap ever again.
It is a 100% spending problem. Taxes are already way too high and should be cut.
Anyone who even entertains the idea that taxes have to be raised is an absolute traitor to Liberty and founding principles. Tax increases should NEVER ever be allowed to be discussed (this applies at all levels of government)
The evil parasite class that is government are literally destroying this Republic. We should only be talking about massive cut backs in government spending and the firing of large numbers of parasites (i.e. govt workers) that sucking the life blood from our Republic.
We have a spending problem period. No compromise whereby taxes are increased will accomplish anything, but push us further towards a Socialist hell.
It astounds me that any GOP leader, facing this insane growth of spending over the past two years that the Marxist has been in power, would even think that raising taxes will solve anything.
If the Dems are willing to cut out all the unconstitutional agencies and efforts in the Federal government, I would go for it. Department of Energy, Education, Environment, arts, Health, HUD, Federal parks and land, Transporation...
All that should be in the States because the Federal government has screwed it up and can’t afford it.
