Let Mrs. Kerry pay for it, and leave the tax cuts alone. After all, "from each according to his means, ...", right?

Gov Granholm here in Michigan proposed the same thing this weekend. Gosh, do you think that the Dems (at least some) are coordinating efforts?

Repealing the tax cuts will not come anywhere near covering the costs of universal coverage. Pure sophistry.

Apparently, Sir Ketchup hasn't been reading the tax receipts ledger lately. Revenues are up, as they always are when there is a tax cut.

It wont be so popular in 2007 when the housing bubble pain becomes widespread and a subject of the evening MSM news.

How about we pay for the tax cuts by "repealing" the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare.

Heck, why just repeal the tax cuts ? Let's come up with some new taxes.
In Tennessee, when you die, the feds get 46% of your assets, and the state gets another 10%. You've already paid about 50% of your income to the taxman while you were alive, but so what ?
John Kerry has a master plan for your money. So, let's pony up some more cash for him and his pals to work with.

The primary falsehood in sKerry's argument is using tax cuts to pay for his program. Assuming tax revenues are a static system is one of the many delusions of the left.
As we all know, cutting taxes raises revenue (up to a point but we are nowhere near that point).
If he was honest in his desire to do this, he would propose a tax cut to pay for universal health care. But of course, that means an end to class warfare, which along with the race card, are the democrat tactics of choice.
What a pandering ass.

Increase taxes for those over 200,000.00 per year.
OK. So, if you took 50% (75% ?) of the INCOME (NOT - I notice, inherited or investment-type capital, but just "income") of EVERYBODY who earned over 200,000.00 last year, could you pay the (approximately 5000.00 per year for the 60,000,000 who (the liberals claim) do not have "health care"?
Let's see. 5000.00 x 60,000,000 = ....
See, you have to count the "employer-matching" cost of most plans, the co-pays, and the loss of the tax-exempt part of the health care for employees that is the FUNDEMENTAL reason company health care plans are available.
If the company could not deduct the health care from its taxes owned, it would not offer health insurance reasonably.

Well, since we can expect free health care, I would hope they also propose to provide everyone with a plasma TV and a jet ski. If this is all under the premise of 'pursuit of happiness' and 'general welfare', then nothing would make me happier and generally well than a big, old hi-def TV I can mount on the wall, and a personal watercraft for the weekends!
This concludes my sarcastic statement.
