"Taxing the rich fairly can be done — and would raise revenue".

Thing is increasing taxes will only trigger increased spending, the liberals don't want to get the economy under control, they just want more to spend.

All the "fairness" rhetoric is just so much bullshat!

increasing taxes will only trigger increased spending,

Exactly, you give govt. $1.00 and they spend $1.50 which you, as taxpayer, are on the hook to pay back with interest.

The income tax issue is being used to avert our attention from what's really coming next: a Wealth Tax.

Recall, Oblamer didn't tell Joe-the-plumber he wanted to "spread the tax burden around", he said,"spread the wealth around".
