Let's try no to be nieve about the tax situation. Dems and Repubs a like have always known this war would have to be paid for and we all know who has to pay for it. Debts the government encounters has to be paid just like mine and your debts. Unless you know someting I don't the good fairy has never come along and swooped my debts away. People should have known all along reckoning day would come and taxes would have to be increased to pay the country's debts.
