Without fiscal responsibility, there will be spending increases. With a balanced budget amendment, they will just automatically raise taxes to cover the short fall till you are ready to start shooting them to stop them. Of course, they will have a well funded military to stomp you out like a cigarette butt.Repeal the bush tax cuts and watch overall tax monies decrease. Yeah, good plan. Balanced budget amendments are doomed to failure. All that happens is an automatic INCREASE in taxation to cover the shortfall.Yes. Recend the Bush tax cuts. Demand a balanced budget amendment.
Yeah, that'll be helpful.
Recending the Bush cuts would raise taxes on everyone. There is no evidence that it would result in fewer overall taxes. Without a Balanced Budget requirement modern day Politicians will continue to run up record deficits.
It is a shown fact that the W tax cuts increased overall tax revenues, due to consumption and other forms of taxation that superseded the loss by any decrease in income taxation, if any.
