Re: "The more we increase taxes, the more difficult it will be for our children to prosper in the future."

In my view, a key to the imminent failure of higher taxation is that it literally shifts the nature of the work the individuals in a society do throughout their lives. Producing the right stuff is key, and when Government determines a greater proportion of the jobs people do instead of the marketplace through individualized buying decisions, we are all worse off.

re:" Increasing tax rates in order to meet the budget shortfall is the wrong way to go. Cutting wasteful government spending is. We have literally hundreds of thousands of projects,"

We have an estimated 180B deficit for this year.....you gonna find waste and pork barrel spending to cover that? Where would you cut......the mantra of "cut waste" is mindless.
