Maybe it is necessary to increase everyone's taxes at least for a while. For the past seven years, we have financed a war and at the same time ignored the real problems facing many Americans, i.e., lack of health insurance and loss of jobs. We then put through massive regressive tax cuts. We financed all of this by borrowing from the Chinese and others and by raiding the social security trust fund. Is it fair of our generation, who twice elected the MORON, to create this burden on our children and grandchildren. Once we get out of this unnecessary war and get the economy back on track, perhaps taxes can again be reduced.

Unfortunately, any candidate who admits that he or she is even considering a tax increase, that candidate is dead. Just ask Walter Mondale or George H.W. Bush.
