Quote:So that would be an allocation issue, if we agree spending in some area's has to be cut we could reallocate those to the underfunded programs. But I just don't think we need a single dollar more in "revenue" we just have to figure out what should be cut, what is necessary and how the hell we dig out of 17 trillion dollars.

While I do think the overall tax burdens could be shifted more away from impacting lower incomes and middle class to upper classes, I tend to think we don't need to increase intake of funds as you have. Cutting for sure needs to be done. That's the big debate right now. Where do the cuts get made and what is worthy of funding.
