How?
To begin the soveriegn debt of the USA is increasing through the NEGLIGENCE of Republican legislators to responsibly raise taxes on those that can best pay more.
That sovereign debt of the USA has provided SERVICES to many people including the wealthy. They should be responsibly asked to contribute more to their protections as citizens and as a rule they have more to protect and get services for, such as Mrs. Bachman and her agritultural interests.
But, that isn't where the real damage is done. The real damage is done to the Poor and Middle Class by removing BENEFITS from Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid after they have contributed to those BENEFITS for all their working years.
See, by reducing benefits of SSI, Medicare and Medicaid that is an indirect tax on the Middle Class and Poor of the USA. Got it? It isn't that complicated although no one will talk about it this way. Other than me perhaps.
See, when a person's tax burden including SSI and Medicare are not raised or LOWERED, that is an indirect tax on their benefits in the future.
The taspzyer although not having tax increses will be paying more for their future benefits.
But, it doesn't stop there.
When one goes to receive benefits there will be far less income than orginally paid for, there will be no chance to save for their future by the reduced benefits in the future and there will higher costs of living.
So, by not raising taxes on those best to pay more taxes the Middle Class is having their lives taxed NOW and in the future all in one Republcan measure based in decades old rhetoric.
This is nonsense. The wealthy need to pay more and that is mroe than reasonable in the year 2011 after our Treasury has been excoriated for eight years by Republicasn STILL unable to stimulate an economy without the burden of increased debt for those eight years in the name of 'a nation at war.
