The CBO has clearly stated that debt will be over $22 trillion by 2022. How is that reducing it? Obama won't have any money to give out if we are bankrupt.

I agree we need a new tax structure like a flat tax or something similar. Hell anything other than the current system would probably be a positive. But to keep adding more to the current system is a fucking joke. Besides when is the last time taxes were raised and the Government made cuts in order to curb the debt? N E V E R... is the answer you're looking for. Obama raising taxes is going to do the same thing, they will simply take that extra cash and spend it on something ridiculous like only Government seems to do.


So, lets get rid of the Bush era tax cuts, stop getting in Wars we don't need to be in, grow the economy, increase the tax base, cut defense, etc.

I totally agree that Tax reform is required! Not another round of unpaid tax cuts that just increase the deficit. Romney's plan is CRAZY and undefined.

Flat Tax FTW!


How about, stop getting into wars we dont need to be in, grow the economy, cut defense, etc.
if we do that we dont need to increase the tax base or raise taxes.
Do you read what you type, "unpaid tax cuts" what the hell is that.
Another difference in how progressives and everyone else see thinks.
And if you dont understand what I mean then your are a progressive,
and that is not a good thing. I like how the far left chose the
word progressive.
