The corporations and the 'rich' are never going to pay more taxes. Why not just tax ourselves?
The 95% of us that work for wages are going to have to save our country if it's to be saved at all. Why not add a couple of pennies per purchase as a sales tax dedicated to DIRECTLY paying off our national debt. If we don't nobody else will. The 5% that already own 90% of everything worth owning, controlling or influencing don't intend to pitch in no matter what. Shame on them! It's not even worth asking anymore. A couple of pennies per purchase...it's a start!

that could be a good start.
but besides taxes....the government spends more than it takes in.
You can raise the taxes, but government has been overspending for quite some time now.
We can sacrifice a little government spending, because the inevitable economic collapse and rejection of our dollar is far worse than giving up your government subsidies. because eventually, we won't have the resources to subsidize everything.

Taxation without representation is like leaving the volt open with a bunch of bank robbers hanging around. We need to start holding these politicians responsible for their actions.

The problem isn't and never has been not enough money going to DC. The problem has always been spending Washington gets ten times more money than it needs we just send people to Washington that don't know how to prioritize. Actually Washington should get much less than it gets right now your problem is that you have been brainwashed by your elected officials and the media!
