Gee, I thought it was the Democrats and their income tax addiction

Unlike the fight, spend and borrow of the republicans...some choices eh?

Josef Re...I think the country should seriously look at a consumption tax, to correct these perverse incentives Democrats left us with.

Agreed, that and most of the social engineer they are trying to do with taxes. I am not say all social engineering is bad, however it has become so rife with corruption, that all of it should be eliminated, and start over again. Wait, we can't do that, then the politicians wouldn't have any reason to persuade their targets to bribe them anymore.

Actually even millionaires did much better under Clinton.
However yes if you want to be idle and conserve your huge family fortune, make sure Bush stays in power and makes working people pay for everything. The manta of the tax hawks saying "wealth is being punished" don't tell you the ral truth, that under Bush average working people are the ones punished. The only ones who win under Bush are already very rich, the ones who want to stay that way and don't want to share it.
