Congressmen Dave Obey wisconsin , Jack Murtha of pensylvania and Jim Mcgovern of massachusetts are sponsering legislation to assess a Sir Tax to pay for the war in Iraq. Low income folks will be taxed 2% of their income and higher income folks will be assessed 12-14%.
I guess that would indicate how serious the american public is about going to war. I think this ought to be an automatic requirement before we engage in foreign military activity. Folks send your sons and daughter to war and include a check to pay for the effort. A constitutional admendment specifying this would keep us out of a lot of wars of choice.
All for it, but only for wars declared by congress. In fact break out every government program and have each tax assessed individually, and everyone sent a quarterly bill instead of withholding. Let the people know what they are paying for.
