Obama Not Raising Taxes? Think Again!
The Obama Budget has been called a road map to the future. However, The Heritage Foundation has looked into it and it doesn't look as rosy as you might think. They say that there are $1.689 Trillion in new taxes. That amounts to $128 Billion more than what was stated by the Office of Management and Budget. They say that the President used a lot of budget tricks to get there.
Is this the time to raise taxes that much or is it time to raise them at all?
