Tax rates triple?
Since half the people in this country pay zero taxes, and zero times three still equals zero, how would that all work?

Its not going to happen. The Democrats are tax happy but not suicidal. A triple digit tax increase would be havoc for them in an election year.

Obama’s path to radical socialism — debase the dollar. Bank on it.

Instead of taxing joint filers with rates ranging from 10 percent to 35 percent....There is no 10% bracket in 2010

That would destroy our way of life within a few years.
Spending must be cut, and entire agencies/programs must be eliminated.

total tax rates would be well over 100 percent for many households," he said. I thought I was already paying more than that.

No mention of the Laffer Curve. The author is probably down at the local convenience store investing his income in lottery tickets.

Everyone would have to pay some level of tax. That’s all there is to it. Collecting it is another matter. It is my firm belief that if we had a resonable government, put a hold on all spending, got rid of all the crooks in Congress and the White House, the American would pay the taxes. IF...if it would help this country. But everyone has to chip in to get it done. The way we are going now, our government will destroy this country.
