Why do Liberals want to raise taxes?

So the 47% can afford to pay their new data plan for their iphone 5?

so GSA can travel lavish parties in Vegas?

to pay for illegal immigrants medical and educational bills while I worked full time at community college?

to redistribute the wealth?

To pay down the national debt that was massivley increased by bush's wars and the blank check Republican congress.

To return us to the prosperious years of Clinton before bush's corporate welfare era nearly destroyed the nation.

Cuz it's opposite day

Our deficit is a result of Bush tax cuts and 2 unfunded wars.

In my world, increasing revenues AND cutting spending is how I reduce out of control debt. I'm not sure which planet doing only one or the other is effective.

They trust the government with our hard earned money. It's crazy.

Romney: lower taxes
Obama: higher taxes

Hello? Shouldn't that be enough to elect Romney?

Its the Republicans that threaten to raise taxes on the middle if the Bush tax cuts expire. Its always been that way. We can't get out of the whole if they aren't raised on the very rich. If Mitt Romney gets in he will tax them to death. And lower them for the very rich.

To them it's not a means to an end, or a necessary evil; it's an end. After having spoken to many, many liberals they want to raise taxes for the sake of raising taxes.
