Asking the Wrong Question
USA Today reports on Virginia’s legislature voting to raise taxes to fund "education, roads and other needs." They also point out,
”...The tax hike had been approved by a Republican-controlled legislature with a tradition of fiscal conservatism. More remarkable: It was $360 million more than Democratic Gov. Mark Warner had requested."
Noting that Republicans are, supposedly, nomially against raising taxes, the paper then asks,
"The trend appears broad enough to ask whether the country’s two-decade entrancement with tax cuts may be easing."
A better question may be “When will Republicans and Democrats admit that they both are simply socialists and combine into the mega-coercive force?”
