Well you should advocate for less spending. I do care about the spending.

If the choice put to me is "lower taxes with a higher deficit" or what we have now "higher taxes with a deficit" I am going to take the lower tax choice every time.

It would not bother me not one second if this tax cut is passed and spending is reduced to balance the budget. Pick whatever spending you want to reduce and I am for it.

Given the reality that spending will not be reduced I still favor the money in my pocket instead of my money in DC.

i do. my current method of doing so heavily includes pointing out the bullshite rhetoric that comes from many who pretend to want less spending. i also think the "starve the beast" approach is utter bullshite.

if spending won't be cut, i want the spending paid for. people actually having to feel the pain of taxes in proportion with our spending more and more seems like the only realistic long-term thing that will ever lead to a real fix
