We have a spending problem, not a taxing problem. The less we spend, the more jobs we have the potential to create.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The problem is government spends too much. So raising taxes is what politicians do, instead of reducing spending.
Instead of raising taxes as some would insist, we need to reduce waste and inefficiency in government.
The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.
We have to reverse spending trends that are not job-creating.
If we want to increase revenue, we need more taxpayers. The way to do that is employ more people.
We have major fiscal problems on our hand.
We cannot collect enough taxes to catch up with spending. Do I know a solution? Not really. Do your politicians know a solution? Does our commander-in-chief offer a solution? Absolutely not.
So if we are really concerned about generating more taxes, we ought to be investing in our people, not taking away the kinds of resources that contribute to their ability to become greater taxpayers in this country.
A budget matters to Americans who can't afford to see their taxes go up or lose the jobs that would be destroyed in the process.
We have to deal with two issues. Spending and taxes.
