Cnnot for the life of me figure out why the democrats are so inssistment on raising tax’s.

With the price of gas, food, energy, with unemployment at a great high, and what we are already paying in tax’s where will the higher tax’s come from?

We have just about bled out Mr. Reid. I know Democrats say tax the rich, but Congressmen and Senators are the rich, an I do not believe they will pass a tax they have to share in paying.

Because they've locked in so much spending under Obamacare, which didn't have nearly enough on the 'revenue' side to pay for it, TARP I, TARP II, and all the other crap that there's literally no money to pay for any of it.

They have to have more money or their precious programs will collapse.

But you see the taxes are only on wages not on investment income. Everyone in the Senate and House has protected their income through investments and non-profits and all sorts of other gimmicks. If you think they pay any taxes at all you are just kidding yourself. The only thing they are required to pay is on their salary and I am sure they have enough deductions to offset any payment.

Maya Angelou, the Leftist poet who performed at the Clinton inauguration, perhaps said it best. The oppressed individual does not yearn for freedom, he or she yearns to feel their boot heel against the neck of the oppressor.

Barry needs to deliver some payback to his constituents against the ones they perceive as evil. Ergo, raise taxes on those Eeeeeeevil rich.

Simple really. Every dollar they can conficate from you is one more dollar under their control, one less under your control.

That's all there is to it.
