But setting that aside, we already know the Bush tax cuts are set to expire which will increase taxation on all levels of income and other taxes such as tobacco have already been increased. The top marginal rate is set to go up to I've heard as high as 45%. My main concern is that all this is coming from a man who said he would go through line by line and eliminate wasteful spending and he would implement a 'pay as you go' policy which has been neglected thus far. So what's stopping him from even further doubling down on these policies when obviously his voters and the media aren't going to hold him accountable like they do when a Republican is in office.

I think the take home message from the tea parties was clear: If this excessive borrowing and spending does not stop, America is going to be in trouble. If the media isn't going to cover what's truly going on, then it's up to the people to get the message out. I was shocked to read your own bigoted views of the people who attended the tea parties while completely ignoring the underlying and extremely important message they were designed to send. I think we can both agree that the excessive spending from the last administration and the current one HAS GOT TO STOP. Fiscal integrity my be reinstated in Washington, from BOTH parties, or we will be facing even greater struggles ahead.
