War tax
If the rich are going to get their tax cuts, they should have to pay a war tax to help pay for the war and keep the $$$$ from adding up on the deficit. There should have been a war tax added when the war in Iraq began in the first place. Tack it on to the wealthy. They can buy one less boat, car, or house until we leave Afghanistan. They've invested enough money in China and should be forced to invest in the U.S. for a change.

Of course, the repubs would never go for that. They act as though they never took a math class in their lives. If the number you are subtracting from is smaller than the number you are subtracting, it's a minus.

1. There is already a war tax
It's called the social security deduction on our paychecks.
