How can the social engineering and wealth redistribution necessary for social justice be achieved without a progressive tax policy? FDR is rolling over in his grave. How can you think like that --unless your are one of those racist, mean spirited, heartless, money-grubbing Capitalists! Just be quiet and pay your fair share. Obama will let you know shortly how much that is . . . this year. Of course, it's going to take a lot more government spending to get the economy back on track after the devastation inherited from George Bush and the Republicans. Probably a couple of trillion next year alone. It is a small price to pay to keep deserving low income families from having to pay mortgages, save the US auto industry, bail out a bankrupt Detroit, rescue California from it's failed economic state, and in addition, make sure there is international funding to Islamic school kids to help teach them we are their friends, provide free national health care, and expand all the other deserving government programs. But don't worry. If you make less than $250K a year (or so) you won't see a penny of increased taxes. Obama has a plan! Just wait and see.
