The burden power is shifting one piece at a time with each tax "change".

I should have proofed myself better.

That's what he wants you to think. He raised federal taxes. That shifted nothing to the states. His tax increases were far bigger than his first round of cuts and may be bigger than the cuts even after this round. I haven't seen all the numbers yet.

But raising taxes is not good. It is especially bad in a down economy. Bush’s huge tax increases were a net increase in what you pay to the federal government. They shifted nothing to the states.
