If they jack up the tax rate for millionaires and billionaires to make up for the lost revenue on those making $250K to $1 million....I think it would pass
What good is it going to do if they continue to spend like there is NO tomorrow?
Exactly. Those that want to stick it to the rich are completely missing the big picture. It distracts from the real issue that our government has a spending problem. So you get more taxes out of the rich. What problem exactly have you solved? You can't raise them enough to make even a dent in the debt. It won't even be enough to prevent yearly deficits in the budget.
