Draggingtree Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 RedState: Time to Pushback- Add the Balanced Budget Amendment How to go back on offense By: gpasman (Diary) | December 20th, 2012 at 10:17 AM | Republicans are on the defensive, to confirm just look at “Plan B”. When was the last time Republicans even considered voting for tax increases? Oh yeah, 1990, and we all know how well that turned out for Republicans. How do we go back on offense? Simple, pass the balanced budget amendment. Here’s why. 1. Republicans, even with “plan B” are the anti-tax party, and are only pushing “plan B” to save most of the tax cuts. It is pointless to have a balanced budget amendment without an anti-tax party, because as we all know, its the spending that is the problem. Even with “plan B” the Republicans are still the anti-tax party. 2. The key to long term tax rates staying low is to cap spending. As Milton Freedman said, “spending is taxing”.
