Just who does your money belong to anyway?
For the record, tax cuts do not add to the deficit. The only thing that adds to the deficit is spending more money than you get.
Just in case some progressives out there have trouble with the concept I will rephrase this in simpler language. The government is not entitled to anyone's money, no matter how rich they are. Money is not a limited resource, and Bill Gates having billions of dollars is not making anyone poorer. If you take money from him and give it to everyone else all you will accomplish is making Gates poor, you will not make anyone else rich.
The only way to spend more money than you have is to spend more money than you have.
Senator Judd Gregg attempts to explain this revolutionary concept to Andrea Mitchell. He is wasting his breath, but I know he is right so I will join him in wasting my time posting the same thing.

Say it along with me, the only way to add to the deficit is spend more money than you have.Money is artificial, and one person having more of an artificial object does not deny others anything.
For those here who are rich and think the government should have more of your money, just send it to them. they will be more than happy to take it and find a way to waste it without you insisting that everyone else has to give up their money.
Senator Judd Gregg schools MSNBCs Andrea Mitchell on taxes | Radio Vice OnlineMuch is being made of the cost of the Obama tax compromise. The left in particular is taking aim on extending the Bush tax rates for millionaires and billionaires. The lefty press is quick to point out what they perceive as hypocrisy on the part of Republicans. After all, extending the tax rates will cost the government $400 billion and $140 billion for the millionaires. Not so says Judd Gregg. Its your, Its not your money quote of the day. Now I will admit my ultimate fiscal conservative dream is to see government cut down to size. And it is true if government spending isnt cut, then the government has to borrow or confiscate more money from us, including the rich. But tax cuts dont need to be paid for because well as Gregg points out to Andrea, it aint the governments money.
