Dems Plan To Raise Taxes

I would never blame the rich for taking advantage of our screwed up tax system. I would do the same --nothing illegal about it. Instead of raising taxes on the rich much more could be gained by just closing a few loop holes.

Closing loopholes is characterized as raising taxes.

Me neither, I'll keep as much of my money as I can. Still, it's screwed up on purpose to benefit those who write the tax code. We'd all benefit more from fixing it than trying to pick up whatever scraps are accessible to us peons. The Dems plans usually allow them to satisfy the more progressive part of their base and say, "See? We did something!" while at best not doing anything.

It sounds better to the masses that they’re going to raise taxes on the rich. Gets them more votes.
