yep, pretty much what I've heard elsewhere. There aren't enough rich to just tax them and keep current spending. So either we tax every worker alot more, or cut spending.

The "fiscal cliff" deal that raised taxes for persons above $400K/$450K ? It also included new tax breaks for Democratic special interests that ate up more than the amount that the higher tax rates will collect.

The fiscal cliff deal included $41 dollars in new spending for every $1 in new tax revenue.

Our government is addicted to spending.

Actually that's what we get for allowing the people to elect the senate (see 17th amendment).

given the current state control, I doubt it would be all that different as far as CO.

But the house allowed the other side to write the document, can we really expect to to do anything except say BOHICA
