There is nothing in stone saying revenues will come up. Right now, the economy is doing quite good but revenues are in the crapper. What happens to revenues if the economy begins to recede? What happens to spending if the economy recedes?
Cut spending across the board. Period.
Do it today. Do it now.
But politicians WON'T do it.
I for one do not want higher taxes. Just because pols refuse to balance the budget & curb spending doesn't mean they have the right to take it from me.
