My problem is not with the fundamental problem (spending). We have a problem. I would argue who's to blame (I would paint a broader blush than the majority opinion here). My point is the fairness and, quite frankly, the hypocrisy of increasing the tax on the poor but giving a pass to the wealthiest Americans.
We all "win" to one degree or another by virtue of being American and living where we do. I find it repugnant that those who benefit the most feel entitled to further benefits that the majority can scarcely envision.
