The government has to get their revenue somehow.... But if you really want to stick with more income tax, that's fine too. That's where we are right now. Or do you mean you would prefer that taxes in general be like...abolished?
The bloated ballooning govt doesn't need MORE revenue. It needs to learn to live on a budget and the word "no". No matter how much money you send the govt, it will NEVER be enough. They will spend every dime and more. They already spend more than a $1 for any $1 dollar you send now. How in the world do you really think we will sustain that? Are we immune to the laws of economics? Do you really think we can just go on and on spending whatever we want and squeezing the taxpayers.
The govt needs some money to operate. The govt can and should provide some BASIC services like the military, etc. Other than that, they need to get their noses out of people's lives.
I would favor a flat tax and that's it. I support NO new taxes period. Cut spending. live on less govt freebies. Ultimately that is what is going to happen anyway.
