Thema: Re:They don't want taxes raised on anyone. And taxing the wealthiest only runs the government for 8 days. Better to cut spending.
Artful Dodger: Or do both. Shame the USA does not have a universal VAT system. Then, non essentials such as a $200,000 car can have a little extra added on that.
Things like food get no VAT added... just luxury items that no-one has to buy unless they want to.
