No, he does not 'get it' the way you mean. Read down through the article. What they're talking about is finding new sources of tax revenue -- the example given is a tax on 'services' -- what the Euros call 'Value-added taxes'. This has been the ambition of a certain contingent of the Democrat party for quite a while, and this is only the latest excuse to push the idea.

While we're on this topic...the LA area FReepers had a 'meat space' meeting this week, and RonDog asked the question "what would you like to get out of the FRnetwork?" Had I been clever enough at the time, I'd have replied "let's lead the fight against Gray's tax increases this year".
So, I'm saying it now.
Sorry for editorializing on your time Redcloak, but you kinda asked.
