Again we aren't talking rich/poor we are talking middle class which is the majority of us. Instead of tax increase can we skip out on aid to your childrens schools, lunch programs, roads you drive on, etc.

welfare - medicade/care all are broken programs but due to tree huggin hippies these are going anywhere.
I would personally like to see the gov't trim the fat out of the current agencies. Take that money saved and re-invest in the US. I like that option over the "tax the rich" part. I say this because taxing the rich is not the answer. I think we should be interested in "FIXING" the US, not just taxing the rich so that the gov't has more money to waste due to inefficiencies and poor business decisions.

Agreed. Waiting for someone to have the balls to actually tackle this issue instead of passing it along for the programs to breakdown and implode.
