If the economy is in such dire straits, then Obama should be lopping hundreds of billions of dollars per year off his deficit spending too. With the news in the last few days about how the housing market is once again in the toilet after Obama's housing giveaway ended and poor unemployment figures, it's even more clear Obama's stimulus spending is a failure.
And instead of taxing the rich extra, how about everyone with an income pay federal income tax since everyone is supposedly benefiting from federal services.
