I will be happy with going back to the same tax rate as under Clinton. That is how we attack the deficit in a fair manner and still care for the least among us. You see the majority of us believe that we are a community and understand that it takes government to help make sure that the least among us are care for. Every church in this country would have to come up with a extra $50,000 dollars a year to do what our government does with the help of all citizens to do. Guess what the government doesn’t make you join their church to help you either.

Every state will be bankrupt since the Congress lead by the Tea Party would not put in place a large enough Recovery Act. You do understand that the Federal Government subsidizes all state governments. Right?

That’s why the GOP cheated its own primary process to ensure that the ONE honest man running for the office couldn’t win.

So are most state in this nation bankrupted your just not being honest because you have no vision past dirty gas, oil, and coal which we the American tax payer subsidize to the tune of”: In the United States, credible estimates of annual fossil fuel subsidies range from $10 billion to $52 billion annually, while even efforts to remove small portions of those subsidies have been defeated in Congress.
In June 2010, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said $557 billion was spent to subsidize fossil fuels globally in 2008, compared to $43 billion in support of renewable energy. In a July 2011 EIA report on federal fossil fuel subsidies, coal was estimated to have tax expenditures (provisions in the federal tax code that reduce the tax liability of firms) with an estimated value of $561 million in FY 2010, down from $3.3 billion in FY 2007.[2]
Natural Gas Gathering Lines Treated as Seven-year Property with Alternative Minimum Tax Relief ($6,000,000)
Natural Gas Arbitrage Exemption ($6,000,000)

According to the National Academy of Sciences report, a conservative estimate of damages from fossil fuel use in the United States—petroleum, natural gas and coal—was approximately $120 billion in 2005. Most of this estimate comes from the cost due to health damage from air pollution associated with electricity generation and vehicles.
Other damages included damage of major air pollutants—sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, ozone, and particulate matter—on grain crops and timber yields, buildings, and recreation. And that $120 billion estimate doesn’t include damages from climate change, harm to ecosystems, effects of some air pollutants such as mercury, or risks to national security.
None of these costs are reflected in energy prices, but we all pay for this damage in other sectors: food, construction, health care, national defense. Monetary costs are important, but there also are the intangible human cost of suffering from preventable illness and premature death.
Dirty energy is not renewable or health effective.
