Cutting spending seems to be a reasonable alternative
We take advantage of the cuts and current level of services. Our kids pay for it though higher taxes and cuts to their services. Kind of messed up, if you think about it.
When was the last time we cut a trillion or more in expenses? I am for taking the medicine now and a real pay-go system.

I think about the additional burden we are putting on our kids in the form of an additional trillion or two added to the debt.
If anyone thinks that debt will ever actually be "paid" you are ignorant. The national debt wont be a burden on our children, our children will just be citizens of China.

I remember when we got our W money in 2001 everyone was happy as hell. Then September came.

How are they sticking it to the poor?
The poor already have a negative tax burden via EIC. So no reason they should get a significant cut.
For pretty much everyone in the middle class and up this is a great thing
300-400 more bucks a month for me.
To bad there will be people dying in the streets though

1) your definition of middle class =/= Washington's definition. Everyone who works 40 hrs a week thinks they're middle class, especially in dual income households. The truth is that most are on the "poor" side and additional healthcare costs will cripple them/us.
2) Without the individual mandate to buy health insurance it's estimated that 13 million Americans simply won't. What do you think 13 million fewer - ostensibly healthy - people not buying insurance is going to do to your rate? The CBO predicts that premiums will rise 10% every year for the next ten.

They're going to take away less of your hard earned money and give it to people who are lazy. You should feel ashamed that you're not giving away more of your income.

Im not saying youre wrong, but less taxes is never a bad thing. Want to complain, complain about the wasteful govt spending of our tax dollars
