Taxes or debt?
Taxes or debt?
Added 80 days ago on November 21st, 2009
Debt didn't get dangerously out of scale because the system was broken. It got out of scale, in part, because the system worked.
The government doesn't make people go into debt, of course. It just nudges them in that direction.

I didn't vote in your poll because solution is for the government to STOP spending money we don't have.

What a STUPID choice!! Our debt is unsustainable, unemployment is at a all time high and let's further screw the working people with higher taxes.... how about getting the idiots in government to stop spending our tax dollars with nothing to show for it except the disaster that we have now and will only get worse.

Increase taxes on the right people, increase corporate tax, increase short term capital gains, Increase long term capital gains. Time to shrink the debt of 12 trillion dollars.
