Lowering taxes and cutting spending DOES begin to solve the problem. You speak as though raising taxes is the only solution. We don't necessarily have to raise taxes EVER.

Well the problem is that lowering taxes doesn't solve the problem. I mean we have gotten the USA into a huge dept and it is not going to pay it self. So lowering taxes for everyone just means raising the taxes later on for everyone as well. Just because you don't want to look at the problem does not mean that it doesn't exits. Inaction is not a solution to a problem, and doing what is popular is not a solution neither. We either going to start solving the problem now or pay more later. That is my point.

McCain wants to raise the tax for everyone? I don't know where you're getting your information but it's wrong. McCain will lower taxes for everyone.

Obama will lower for some, raise for others.

The taxation is the the problem. The problem is who you are taxing... In Obama he wants to raise the tax to the top 10% and lower the tax for the rest. Mc Dogle here wants to raise the tax for everyone. So you want less tax for you then vote Obama.
