What I cannot believe, is that the Dems are still trying to raise taxes on middle class folk ( a 2 income family making 250k is just middle class, especially in high cost of living areas. )

Why not argue for closing a few dozen unneeded overseas military bases. Why not ship all the Iraq troops back today, that would save a good chunk of money.

Not having the courage to go after the unneeded portions of military spending and banging the class warfare gong ( sorry , people making 200k are not necessarily millionaires ) just does not impress me.

I do not have any issues with hard infrastructure spending though. The roads and bridges do certainly need a lot of work.
