      From the article:

      None of this means we shouldn't tax the rich more. Fixing a ruinous deficit requires putting everything on the table, including higher taxes on the rich.

      Yeap, let’s tax the rich more!

        Solving the problem won't come from one sector. We have 1,100 military bases with over 700 of them being overseas. DJT questioned that but now seems distracted. Eisenhower, of all people, who knew military spending better than anyone - didn't trust it. We ensure that some nations have wonderful healthcare systems and free education while denying it to our own citizenry. Something isn't working right.
