Z, > I only want taxes to go up to pay for the things we should have.

Might want to own up to that, instead of pretending that taxes just have to go up like water just has to go down a river.

Passing entitlement programs without asking how to pay for it is incredibly dishonest. You're trying to appeal to a gullible public who thinks there's a disconnect between the entitlements they will be getting and the taxes that will be imposed upon society. I know YOU think taxes ought to go up, but you're just BSing if you dismiss the concerns over how to pay for the entitlements.

And yes, power does indeed corrupt. That's not a "spooky conspiracy theory." That's just another truth that you'd rather run away from or pretend it can be held in check with good intentions alone.
