tonto, Paul in no way answered my question to Kenneth. Should taxes be raised on only a very small minority, the huge deficit will not go away, nor will it be earmarked for any specific programs. Programs and services must be cut. They can not be supported at this time. The $15,000,000,000,000 of debt is strangling the future and the effort required to manage it is not being spent.


Cuts and revenue increases will be necessary to reduce the 15 trillion debt.

Maybe you don't think we need cuts? Or do you think others should experience the cuts but not you or your friends? Sounds a lot like tax the other guy.


Honestly, for myself, it would be to my benefit to have the cuts on the budget side and revenue where I would not have to pay capital gains, Cain's 9,9,9 or a flat (fair tax), etc. I will only pay what I am required to pay and take all the tax deductions which the Federal Government and State will allow me to take. That is the Governments responsible to look out for all the US citizens as a whole not just those of us who are taking the steps to maximize our profits at the expense of the less fortunate. Buffet, is correct that we have a responsibility to our fellow Americans to help them help themselves to succeed.




I will go along with Buffet to raise rates and help out our fellow Americans to help them to help themselves to succeed. How clear can that be tonto!!!!!!!
