too much time spent debating stuff that doesn't matter. I assume Obama will win. I assume that the tax code will be re-written. I assume that new social programs will be developed.
But, I know that Congress will do these things, not Obama.
So, we'll see what it really looks like later.
Many people have independently determined that Obama's tax plans don't pay for his promised programs.
So, if Congress wants to support the proposals of Obama, they have to:
1)increase the tax burden some where
2)gut the programs
3)borrow money/increase the national debt further if they wish to avoid options 1 and 2
