It seems that Democrats and Progressives seem very quick to inflate the cost of the Federal Government - directly and indirectly. Advocating welfare programs, healthcare insurance, and imposing environmental regulations onto businesses - not to mention other costs of business that are based on sometimes specious reasons, we have voters who inflate costs of government and then whine that others aren't paying their fare share.
Conservatives - neo-cons - impose inflated costs of military spending on the rest of us - maintaining military installations around the world and getting into wars without a winning or definable exit strategy.
I thus think that those who advocate for Federal Spending should pay for it.
Progressives, neo-communists, liberals, and Democrat voters should be required to pay for any increase in domestic spending that covers welfare, health insurance, all environmental regulations, and federalized education and all costs associated with the infection of illegal aliens in this country, and all foreign aid and costs of abortion. Every person who votes for these policies will be assessed a tax on election day equal to their share of any costs of these programs from November 2000 onwards. And this tax will be a progressive one - 90% of the tax will be born by the top 10% of the voters who earn the most. No Democrat/Socialist/Progressive voter will be exempt - there will be a ceiling, however, for the poor. You will be required to pay 50% of your income and benefits to support your ideology. You can't use your poverty as an excuse not to pay your fair share. And since Progressives bastardize the general welfare clause, it is time they foot the ENTIRE bill for what they believe is "general welfare". All money spent on green energy, loans, tax breaks for buying hybrid cars or VaporVolts and the entire "green jobs" program of King Pimple of a Man will be added to the cost of Government that Progressive voters will be obligated to pay for.
Why impose a tax on all spending since 2000? Well, Democrats are so quick to falsely claim that we had a balanced budget during the term of William the Womanizer. I think it is thus important that we operationalize their claims into having to pay the 15 plus years of liberal policies - and since Progressives artificially inflated the baseline budget in 2001 by $1 trillion and never looked back, it is time to make them pay for that government inflation.
Conservatives and neo-cons will be required to pay for all tax breaks to businesses, military spending that is not directly tied to defense, all capital gains taxes, all bank and corporate bailouts since 2000 (including interest and carrying costs of the debt), and all costs of federal student loans to colleges. The top 10% will pay 90% effective tax rate and the rest of the 10% of costs will be expected of the rest of the income earners who vote Republican, Conservative, or Fundamentalist religious.
But wait, there is more.... all neo-cons will have to pay for the entire cost of the Iraq war through 2009. This time King Pimple of a Man voters aren't obligated - they will get soaked for all costs afterwards, but neo-cons will get billed for the trillions spent violating the sovereignty of Iraq for whatever reason they contrived. The war in Afghanistan was needed because that is where Osama was housed at the time. All voters including Libertarians will bear the cost surcharge of this war.
Libertarians will be required to only finance that which the Federal Government is required to do by the Constitution. Roads and the defense of the US mainland will be the only programs that those who vote Libertarian will have to pay for. All Libertarians will pay an equal percentage of their income, not to exceed 18% and will not have to pay for grandfathered policies. Any revenue needed to bridge gap between what Libertarians pay and the rest of the citizens will be equally split between the first two groups as a surcharge for their ideology.
This is fair - those who advocate big government intrusion into our lives should be required to pay for it - there will be no income level excuse for not paying at least half of your income in taxes - the poor will bear the burden of their support.
Perhaps this will cause people to think twice before voting for policies they demand that others pay for - it is time to make the big spenders pay for their big mouths.
Please note that if a voter is unable to pay for the cost of his vote, he can always decide not to vote for the rest of his/her life and would avoid having to put his/her money where his vote is.
