The point is the Bush tax cut doesn't make sense in our post-9/11 world.
How are we paying for 1) the deployment of the regular, reserve, and
National Guard troops, 2) the rebuilding cost of Iraq (remember the
$87,000,000,000?), 3) homeland security? The answer is our children and
grand-children are going to be stuck with the bill.


conventional thinking.....always looks that way on paper .... WW-II vets
theoretically had to come home and then pay for the war, too. but if you
let the economy roll, it never works out that way. revenues increase, and
the books even out faster than anticipated

if you raise taxes now, just as the economy is starting to roll again,
you'll kill the recovery, and still have to pay for the war.
