Don't know where you got your facts about people supporting higher taxes. No "people" around where I live are in favor of higher taxes. They are in favor of less government spending though...
I got the facts from a website which posted many polls conducted over the past half year. It links all the polls. You can click on the links in all of them.
Yes, from the highly respect capitalgainsandgames.com, of course every knows of that prestigious organization.
How about Gallup? What does that more respected polling organization say?

Toro, you are either purposing lying, or just cherry picking polls from organizations no has ever heard because you are wrong--WRONG--when you say a majority of Americans want higher taxes.
The plurality of Americans are against this administration and you are on the losing end of this debate.
Correct. Toro likes Bruce Bartlett because their beliefs are similar. Unfortunately, Bruce Bartlett is wrong.
