Why bother with incrementalism, the Dems should just cut to the chase and explain that they want to control every dollar you earn to fund their socialist utopia...

There is NO need to increase tax revenues, there IS a need to cut spending. No one up there seems to have the balls to get it done.

Dems ... want to control every dollar you earn
While that's painfully true, the real reason is to steal our freedom. Once enacted, the tax will be increased to the point you won't be able to drive.
You'll have to sell the car and be forced to take public transportation. Then they'll increase other taxes and you'll be totally broke and totally dependent on the 'gubmint.
It goes hand-in-glove with 0bama wanting gov't control of student loans and healthcare. Cradle to grave dependency and control.
