34. Well, how are you going to sell these new taxes?

I'm in favor of this, but it won't be cheap, meaning it's going to be quite difficult to get legislation passed to raise more taxes, especially since Obama promised taxes would not go up for most Americans. 'Tax the rich' is a possibility, but the fact is that's the solution that's gets offered for every problem on DU, in practice there are limits to how far you can carry that.
