Republicans have been counting on angry voters to put them back in power this next November, but this may be harder to accomplish than they think. With a whopping 47 percent of Americans not paying taxes, this means a voting majority who don't care about their 'children and grandchildren' paying off the debt in higher and higher taxes. The fact is, they benefit from the taxes others pay. The minority who actually pay taxes are the ones who are upset about the enormous healthcare tax burden and the looming possibility of cap and trade--and as a minority, their frustrations will continue to be ignored.
As long as almost half of Americans benefit from these high tax burdens--and they vote--there's no reason to expect anything but more and higher taxes.
Lately this administration has been throwing out the 'trial balloon' for a value added tax--in other words, a national sales tax. This administration knows they cannot possibly pay for all they've planned on--without a VAT. This is what they have in Europe--it's how they pay for their 'socialized' govt. system--and that is what this Administration is determined to have here in the United States.
Once again, Republicans will have no say in what's done regarding a VAT; As long as Democrats have the majority and are willing, by any means necessary, to push through their agenda, regardless of whether or not it is unpopular with Americans (as was the case with the Healthcare bill) they will pass it.
How will the President explain his broken campaign promise that "95% percent of Americans would not see their taxes go up a single dime". I'm sure he won't have to, because none of the Main news media outlets will bother to ask him.
