Grover Norquist's Plan is really a TAX INCREASE for the majority
Why do we let politicians get away with claiming that they're not going to raise taxes when the result of that strategy is in reality higher costs for everybody? Why can't we reframe the conversation?:crazy:

5. Then why aren't we shoving this down peoples' throats? All they
hear is "no taxes" and they haven't been informed of the reality that would result. We are the WORST at messaging! :grr:

7. I'd like to hear a politician say " I am NOT signing the pledge because it does the opposite of what
it says it does"

6. That's always been the idea.
But I don't see how they expect us to carry the bills when they refuse to provide the jobs we need to pay those taxes. Jeebus.

They're all morans, and totally disconnected from reality.
