I grow weary from all the talk of “raising taxes”. I don’t want any more tax increases or “new taxes” until spending is cut significantly. Time for the pols to face the facts, the can has been kicked too far and too long. Government is just theater of the absurd.
I wouldn't consider cuts to be "significant" until they eliminate all the programs that our federal government has no business doing.
That includes ALL welfare, social security, most "scientific studies", sugar subsidies, and a myriad of other nonsense. My view of what the federal government should be doing is completely consistent with the idea that federal taxes are way too high right now. There is absolutely no justification for raising anybody's taxes.
