I was also very aware of the increase in taxes that took place. Congress is the culprit. They have had almost 30 years to implement reforms. Like always, they wait till we are on the edge of a cliff before they even think about acting.
The President makes a terrific scape goat for Congress. They get to blame everything on him. Congress is supposed to pass the legislation, and the President's administration is supposed to implement it. Congress Critters dodge their responsibility so they can get re-elected. JMO.
Which of the current candidates would you want to hear discuss any issue and trust that they’d know what the heck they were talking about? Whether you’re listening for a 5-minute segment or a 2-hour interview? Newt’s the only guy who knows all the issues and all the history inside and out. I just don’t know why we’d want to settle for a lesser mind when we have him available.
