Well, we got ourselves into this mess and it will take some PAIN to get out of it. We need to let the Bush tax cuts expire for ALL (however this will effect the rich more since they got bigger % cuts), AND we need to cut entitlements. To say we can get out of this mess without doing BOTH is just kicking the can. C'mon! Lets do it for future generations. If my grandfather can island-hop throughout the south pacific during WWII (US Marines) then certainly I can swallow more taxes and higher medicare co-pays. The problem is...who to trust with the additional $$. Certainly not the current crop of politicians.
I agree with you. But since I, like you, don't trust the politicians, I want the cuts to come -first-.
