Democrats in Congress tried recently to create a new tax to help pay for the Wars. That of course hit a brick wall. I can almost bet you those that fought the idea were those that have been pushing War from day one.
I'm sure the real reason for trying to pass a tax bill was to get American's to wake up. Most of us know that when Americans are hit with possible tax increase they immediately go into Alert mode. Yes, I want new schools. Yes, I want new roads. Yes, I want new infrastructure and new bridges. Yes, I want a stronger military and yes, I want to go to war; but don't ask me to pay for it.
Because of America's attitude, you have to GIVE them a little to GET a little back.
While I think it's quite appropriate for our Government to ask for additional SACRIFICE from Americans (non-military) to help PAY for any War they allowed their representative to vote for (it just might give them second thoughts about the war if it means their Pocket Issues are involved), I think you would do better by offering a different kind of War Bond or Money Market Fund, allowing those that pay in, the ability to get something back in years to come....
