Another Billy Zippo troll thread.No you misunderstand. Paying taxes has always been important. Republicans have always been against it.You must be paying attention. We have always said lower taxes and stop spending so damn much.Now, granted both Bush and Obama have over spent by a lot. However, republicans still seem to think cutting taxes is a viable solution for anything. If you actually broke down the debt under Obama, you would see the trillions that have accumulated under him are because of a surge in defense spending and extending Bush's tax cuts.
Why is it that republicans will bitch and whine about spending yet don't see the error in believing tax cuts contribute to our national debt just as much?
US Debt by President
It is interesting though that you think one action is counter to the other. High tax rates don't deliver prosperity because the government can keep on spending. Spending more than you have doesn't promote prosperity either.
Where you go wrong in your comparison is most people would be willing to keep paying higher taxes for a short time to pay off the debt if, and that's a giant fucking if, the government would actually cut their spending to levels below what they are bringing in. Nobody believes that would actually happen though. Until it does happen though there is no tax rate high enough to keep supporting this level of spending.
Hey, Billy. Please post where Republicans are against paying taxes. We'll wait.
