The fundamental problem is that those who control this conversation are convincing you people that this is an "us vs. them", zero-sum game. It is not! The budget of the federal government is WAY TOO HIGH. Those of us who pay income taxes pay more than we should have to in order to fund the bloated federal budget. If you want to get mad at someone, have someone to blame, then get mad at the federal government for consistently failing to cut spending and failing to cut the size of the government.
The federal budget is only bloated because of rightwing funding for unnecessary military spending.
Taxes are too low to meet the rightwing warmongering.
So yes, taxes do need to be raised and military spending needs to be drastically reduced.
This view is deranged. The big spending money pit is entitlements.
We the People paid for those "entitlements" by working for them so your deranged misinformation about them is your problem.
Remove the warmongering and raise taxes to pay off the wars that your elected representatives started at the behest of the special interests.
