[quote=harvey]there’s definitely a blatant use of the “slippery slope” logical fallacy in there.
Here’s a historical fact for ya: Tax rates don’t always go up. They sometimes go down. In fact they’ve gone up and down quite a bit in the past 50 years (and there is little correlation between the direction of change and the party of the president in office at the time.)
So the slippery slope argument can be completely dis-proven by history, i.e. the real world.
