The unified budget deficit is projected to be gone by next election day - see # 5569 on the left/right discussion thread. The dems, if elected, will try to repair it as Clinton did. The Congressional Democrats can take credit for the next balanced budget - though its already on the way. John Edwards is already on record saying he is looking at raising the top marginal tax by 2% (I think) on folks earning $200,000 and up. I believe he'd raise taxes as much as he possibly can. I hope he runs on higher taxes - assuming he vanquishes the hildebeest. I want the Bush cuts reversed and I'm willing to pay my part. Why not send in more than you owe. The government accepts donations. Or just let the economy grow it away. And much of what we did get was lost back to higher gas and utilities prices. Which have nothing to do with taxes. Does anyone think paying higher income taxes will produce lower utility or gas prices?
