Here’s that part of Rush’s transcript:
“Before the recession, Washington spent $24,000 a year per US household. Obama would hike it to $36,000 by 2020 — an inflation-adjusted $12,000-per-household expansion of government. (And does anyone think they’re getting their money’s worth?).” Add that to the $75,000 share of our debt that every household has. “If spending jumps $12,000 per household, taxes must eventually rise. The president would make a large down-payment on that with a $2 trillion tax hike on all Americans.” This is the fourth source now that says every American gets a tax increase. Reuters, Investor’s Business Daily, the New York Post, and the Wall Street Journal. And whoever looks at this honestly will conclude the same thing.”
Those figures are virtual figures in that people don’t feel the immediate impact on their personal finances. What you need is somewhere where Obama or his admin. state that you will be taxed an additional $1,000 per month out of your paycheck, IOW, your Medicare deduction or SSA deduction will increase by $250 per weekly paycheck (or however you’re paid). They have to see it really coming out of their pay.
