What is the old saying? “Don’t pi$$ on me and tell me it’s raining.”
The Rats ramped up spending, without a budget, without a plan to pay for it, with the full intention of forcing Republicans to acquiesce on raising taxes. Raise taxes (which will not cure the deficit), and they will start the cycle all over again. If we are going to have a Rat induced government default, I would prefer it be now instead of later.
Besides, every tax dollar “raised” turns into $1.50 more spending by Dems.
