I'm not for raising taxes on anyone - period.

Raising taxes won't create private sector jobs.

I'm for tax reform, not tax increases.

You don't get an economy growing by raising taxes.

You don't raise taxes in times of such uncertainty.

Let me tell you, the heart of my tax proposal: I will not raise taxes on the American people. I will not raise taxes on middle-income Americans.

I am for lowering taxes.

There's no reason to raise taxes. Taxes should be lower... The problem we have is that government spends too much, not that taxes are too low.

If you raise taxes on something, you discourage that activity.
