People generally have exactly as much or as little government as 51% of them have asked for. The only question is whether the 49% who lost pay enough taxes for the petty rebellions you propose to achieve footnote materiality.
1. Absolutely. On the right, mostly.

2. Notice I used the word "trend" in my post a few times. Yes, in a static worldn - one in which trends never occured and scenarios never changged - I would agee with you.

The current absent projected revenue stands at $290 billion. Raise taxes and watch that number increase at a percent wildy above the percent of increased revenue picked up from the increase.
