pretty hysterical quilsinster. In PA electrical system, water systems, sewer systems are all managed by utilities who have rates set to cover their costs. We are paying for all that already. Take a look through the bill and you might notice how little is actually for infrastructure that we all use. A lot of it is for growing government agencies and facilities. That surely will spur on economic growth.

If you expand the size of the house you live in does that mean your costs will go down and your income will rise?

Also, if you ever had a small business you might have heard of sub-chapter S corps. Small business's where their income is divided among the owners. Guess what, that does not mean that they have it in their pockets. The tax increase is going to affect an enormous number of small businesses and if you think that the added tax is not going to have an effect you do not know how to add or subtract. For some reason we have grown to view those who make more as evil and I just do not get it. I am not in that category by the way.

Most of that money is only going to grow the size and cost of keeping the government and if you do not think that as the cost goes up the tax man is not going to come for you, well you are out of your mind. Forget about all the other impacts of a huge deficit that no one is talking about. Inflation is one you may have heard of, but what about the potential that the credit rating of the US goes down and the interest rate to sell our bonds increases, do the math on that some time and you will barf.

What they (all of the people in DC) say and what the reality is tends to be pretty far apart and if you do not examine the details you will think they are doing great things for you. Guess what they are NOT.
