Well, you can talk about it either way. My point is always the same. If the American people want to spend more, then we need to tax more. You call that tax and spend. Yes, tax and spend is correct. Or if the American people decide they want a smaller government with less services and social welfare, then we can cut spending and cut taxes too. So we can call that cut and rebate. Whatever. Look. Republicans need to get it out of their heads that tax and spend is bad. If Republicans want to spend so much, they need to raise taxes. Be fiscally responsible.

"Your solution of raising taxes is similar to me asking my employer for a raise because I can't stick to a budget and save $1K more per month toward a new home." WRONG! We need to raise taxes BECAUSE the guy YOU voted for couldn't stick to a budget and exploded the deficit. It's really YOUR fault - you and YOUR ilk elected the clown and have empowered him for the last eight years. We kept TELLING you he was an incompetent fool, but you did NOTHING to reign him in.
