[quote=no_such_reality]I’m partly bouyed by a ad-hoc poll on the LA Times on the fiscal cliff deal article. It’s showing 90% saying spending is the problem. That’s on the typical uber left LA Times readers.[/quote]
They favor cut spending but not any spending cut that will impact them. Just look at last year’s CA propositions for increasing taxes on education. Just like people say that revenue should be raised but it should not get raised from their taxes.
So as long as we tax somebody else and cut spending that impacts somebody else. As a nation, we will do just fine.
