This is not policy. It's politics.
Obama wants tax increases to continue spending. Period.
Bush Tax Breaks have cost us nearly $2 Trillion in deficits.
If we end those by MAKING EVERYONE PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE, then the deficit will drop and we will have more room to spend on other necessities.
Also, Taxing churches for getting involved in politics isn't a bad idea either. We could use that money to send 8 mars rovers equal to Curiosity to pars a month if we held people responsible for breaking the tax exemption rules.
Ok so raising taxes on the rich is going to close the deficit? boy you dont know shit do you? You realize you could take all the money from the top 1% and not even put a dent in the deficit.
Hmmm........ Clinton raised taxes on the rich. And we had the longest sustained economic boom in our history. You dumb fucks flap this yap, and ignore recent history.
Bush cut taxes on the wealthy, and there were fewer jobs when he left office than when he took office. Not only that, when he left office, we were on the verge of the Second Great Republican Depression.
