<<<Apparently, the uniting position is deficit spending and the fear of fiscal armageddon.>>> Ben Stein was just on Sunday Morning tv with one of his essays. He says he is not super rich. He says he is well off copared to others and is in the upper (I assume over $250,000 incoe bracket. He says he works hard, is relatively frugal, and deserve his wealth. Somewhat disingenuosly asks why he is being punished and having his money confiscated and that there is no known economic principle that suggest that raising his taxes would make our economic situation better. He and the rw always gets away with this argument without being challenged. How about: 1. Fairness. Rich have to pay a little more. 2. Restore tax cuts to Clinton levels - because not to do so would mean that we would have to go into debt, borrow money, to give him a little more walking around money.
