Great, so do you think the President will listen to him this term?


Yes. A 1% bump in discretionary spending is tantamount to a cut if GDP is
growing at better than 3%.

Or, do
you, like myself, think there will be a tax *increase* hidden in that "tax
overhaul" he's been talking about?


There won't be a tax increase. However, there will be certain loopholes
(like the SUV deduction) that will be eliminated.
