And here I thought you were a Bush voter.

You think all the red ink we're piling up
is just going to go away by magic and that no taxes will *ever* be required to
pay for it?

The current admin and congress is spending *your* money at a furious pace.
Don't be so comforted that they haven't come 'round with the due bill,....not
yet.

You can't spend money without income to offset it. Aren't you gops supposed to
be business majors? :-)



Yes, and that's why we don't run from the word "deficit" like a bunch
of chicken littles. A deficit can be carried almost indefinitely and
paid off gradually, and not require a huge hike in taxes to pay off.
Once the war ends, and if we continue to hold a tight rein on the
purse strings, the deficit will drop.

On the other hand, if Kerry wins and somehow manages to bring his idea
of universal secondary education and healthcare to reality, I'd like
to know just how he plans to pay for that additional enormous drain on
the budget?

I guess he'll just tax those "darn rich people" again. But what
happens when the rich get fed up with the ever increasing "sin taxes"
that have been leveled against them, and simply move out of the
country? Who will be left to take up the slack?
