[quote=Anonymous]They want people to believe that we can’t afford a social safety net. Of course, they could raise revenue, like forgo the tax cut extension, help the IRS collect the $500-$700 billion/year that goes uncollected from the wealthy and remove the wage cap on payroll taxes. But, libertarians - and that’s who is pulling the chains here - hate government, taxes, and especially a social safety net. They think that everyone should be on their own and the market itself will sort everything out. Apparently, after there’s no safety net, old people will respond to incentives to work again and former taxpayers will inundate charities with money for the poor. 🙄[/quote]
