1. Yeah, but, but, but...
Clinton cause the bu$h wars and the bad economy. And, and..., Eisenhower wasn't a real Republican. He was anti-defence companies.
No way what you avocate can work. Tipical liberal BS.

2. Last night I read that if the top 2% got their rate raised by 2%
(to 17%) this would raise $250 B over ten years. Not enough, see? But what if we raise their tax rate by 10%, to 25%, that's a trillion dollars. And still (at 25% marginal) well below the rate that most Americans pay (35%)

So don't let anybody tell you it wouldn't raise enough money. They're just on the corporate side.
