Hi Zim,
"I think if 'We The People' truly believed the government was going to do the right things - pay down the debt, act responsibly, stop corruption and theft ... we would go for a short term tax increase to get U.S. out of the hole."
That's the dirty lil' secret, now ain't it, Zim!
The Democrats are all whining about why the Republicans won't accept $1 of tax increases for $3 of unspecified spending cuts ... ROTFLMAO! Problem is, the Democrats are too stupid to see that a whole lot more Americans have caught on to their scam. They want that $1 of tax increases sooner than later, and those $3 of nebulous spending cuts ... well ... those get kicked out to several years from now. Puhleeeeeeease! This is exactly why the American people are holding their ground against tax increases ... they know the politicians won't use any extra revenue to pay down debt ... they'll just spend it, before they even get it, on some other boondoggle to buy votes for themselves from the people with their hands out for more.
It's becoming clearer and clearer that the only way to rein in the village idiots running the federal government is to starve them.
